What happened to Cain and Abel?

The bible tells us that Cain and Abel were brothers. Cain and Abel both made an offer to the Lord. The smoke from Abel's altar went straight up to heaven, but the smoke from Cain's altar stayed on the earth. Cain did not offer as the Lord had told them too. Cain was displeased and later killed his brother.
Cain became the first murderer! Murderers do not enter heaven!
Lesson: watch out for jealousy!!!
Jesus forgives but you have to do this with a true repentant heart and certainly kill no more!

You're mostly right

Cain knew what he was supposed to do, though it is assumed in the Bible as they were intelligent people (as they were about 50 times as smart as us), and that was to offer a sacrifice, a living sacrifice, but he did what he wanted, and offered of his own hand, his works, his plants/crops.

Abel also knew what he was to do, and though his brother did not do the right thing, he was to, and he offered a lamb, a living sacrifice, one that was to symbolize Christ on the cross, which was also a prophesy itself, as abel was as a lamb and he died by his brother's hand, as Christ would later do, without any recorded struggle, which was the way in Christ would also die as well.
