Living Word

How did Kayin (Cain) and Hevel (Abel) know to offer sacrifices to G-d?
Hevel offered the firstborn of his flock. Why?
Were these sacrifices offered for sin?

In Genesis 4:6, G-d tells Kayin that he will be "accepted if he does well", but that "sin crouches at the door" if he doesn't "do well". This is a strange warning from G-d considering He hadn't yet given His instruction, isn't it? How would Kayin even know what sin was at that point in time?
