Wasn’t Cain and Abel after the fall? How was it that Cain and able were not after Adam’s image?

Under the Law of Moses, Israel was a covenant people. In Exodus 34:6-7, Moses taught that God visits the sins of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, upon the third and upon fourth generation. The particular sin that God visited to the third and fourth generation was specifically the worship of other gods and idolatry. Behind idolatry, as discussed earlier, is the aspect of demonism. If there was some form of idolatry, the sin of demonic control can be passed down to the third and fourth generation. Idolatry is not limited merely to the bowing before statues. Any form of the occult is, in essence, a form of idolatry, because it involves respect for another god other than the true God. But the Mosaic Law does not operate today. Is not the rule of life for the believer, nor can the Law be used to try to develop spiritual principles to avoid demon possession or the need for deliverance. It has become a fad in certain movements of the Christian church to claim that one "needs to break a generational bondage," but that is simply not biblically valid. To begin with, the Mosaic Law, with its principle of God visiting the sins of the fathers down to the fourth generation, was true only in reference to Israel because of Israel's covenantal relationship. It does not apply to the Gentiles or to the Church today. Furthermore, once a person receives the Lord and is regenerated, any bondage to sin is broken immediately; one does not need to go around renouncing previous generation sins, though some teach that people need to break the curses of bondage coming down the generational line. This is just a new fad that has permeated segments of the evangelical church, and certain teachers have misused the Scriptures in trying to hold to this premise. While it was true for Israel under the Mosaic Law, it was not true for Gentiles during the same period, nor is it true for believers today. When we are regenerated, we are saved completely and that includes salvation from any generational sin. Spiritual problems are easily solved when people conform themselves to the spiritual principles of the Law of the Messiah, and there is no need to try to explain them by claiming that the Mosaic Law somehow still applies today. It does not now, and never did apply to Gentiles. People often pray the way they have been taught and often follow the newest gimmicks and fads; such as, "binding the spirits." As the Holy Spirit does not violate His own Word, people are not led by the Spirit to pray against generational sins. Whatever the Holy Spirit does by way of leading people today would be consistent with the written Word of God. All of the prayers of the apostles and the principles of the New Testament. while dealing with the issues of sins in various believers' lives, never mention praying to break any generational bondage. People have simply taken a principle out of the Law which applied to Israel as a covenantal people and applied it to believers today; by so doing, they have devalued the accomplishments of the blood of the Messiah on the cross, an act that brings instantaneous deliverance from any bondage of sin.
