Bible Question: Since Christ died for our transgressions, do you believe that today the penalty of our fathers sins ar passed down to the next generations? |
Bible Answer: Hello fcs375, The penalty of sin is not passed down from one generation to another. Consider Ezek 18:19-20 Yet you say, "Why should not the son suffer for the iniquity of the father?" When the son has done what is just and right, and has been careful to observe all my statutes, he shall surely live. The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not suffer for the iniquity of the father, nor the father suffer for the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself. Read all of Ezekiel 18 for context. Guilt and penalty are not passed on but consequences can be. Steve |
