THESIS 10: THE PURPOSE OF CAIN'S "SUSPENDED SENTENCE"

Cain rebelled against Godly Patriarchy.[40] Cain's murder of his brother was worthy of death,[41] but the Lord by Divine mandate had Cain's life spared.[42] Cain was thus free to establish the "State"[43] (#11), which eventually executed Christ[44] -- the only way His Blood could have been shed for our sins.
