DESCRIPTION: Does God hold children accountable for when their parents do bad things? Is culpability for sin passed on from one generation to the next? Sean briefly answers these questions.
Thank you for this
Thanks Pastor for the perfect insight,..i got Deuteronomy 24:16..
Adam was everyones farther, he committed sin which we are still under today, so all this talk of Ezekiel 18:20, Deuteronomy 24:16 is wrong we are still dying because of the sin our farthers committed even if we are resurrected, we still are paying for our farthers debts.. Ie if your farther owed money and someone came and took it from you at a time not convenient or with violence or malice, but then gave it back at a later date would you be pleased.
(I'm think of myself as Christian but wrangle with these questions as I believe it's important not just to blindy follow the herd)
Kind of hard to trust someone with a Blazer over a Batman shirt.
Lol!
Well there are false prophets who are more manipulative who wear white shirts and best jeans with nothing pop culture that can still be ungodly teaching like the black Hebrew israelites
It is a distraction 😂
You know what’s funny? “The Batman” brought me here
Don’t judge or you will be judged in the same manner
Thank God 😇❤🙏🕊❇📖🕎🛐 !
The consequence of the parents actions affects their children’s life. God is the laws of the universe itself.
But what if 2 saved people have a child, would the sins inevitably ruin their lives
Thank god
💧Information : I’ll do my ( Re/Search ) if the children do get punished/ or cursed from the paternal parents generation from generation! BECAUSE FROM WHAT I HEARD ear 👂 THAT IS TRUE!!!!! I’ll be doing extent RE-SEARCH!!!! Thankyou! Ms.
that makes no sense then why does God punish mankind for Adam and Eve's sins?
Because they were the 1rst Sinful People
In Deutroronony 24 isn't it referring to laws concerning family and not God's punishment towards man?
Our choices to be righteous and good depend on how God leads us to do right or wrong. ( You will not understand this). He leads people to do what He wants them to do.. Now let me hear something twisted to defend this. He is the one who turns the hearts of people whether they are His people or any other people. My friend this is a heavenly game which nobody will understand.
So why in the old testament god said father's sins donot affect on son, everybody must take forgiveness from god by the sinner.I think jessu died for our sins is contradictory with old testament.
The Bible is full on contractions. In one instance there is talk about punishing later generations and the next there is talk not punish the later generations. I’m confused.
@DennisBonichWhy don't you explain then Einstein
@DennisBonich he already gave you one example you didn't even explained it dumb ass
But David's and Bethsheba's son died because of David's sin. He did not have a chance to grow and make his own decisions.
Also, when God allowed the devil to try Job, he lost all of his children. Was that fair? given that those ten kids died, yet they had their own lives separate from Jobs?
The Son of David died for the sins of David. The Son of David was his baby, and he is also Jesus. That is interesting, I believe it is a foreshadowing of Jesus death for others.
@@martinecheverria5968 it was because Jacob only confessed his sin privately instead of public
Job was a righteous man, he did not lose his children bc of sin. The Lord gives and the Lord takes away blessed be the name of the Lord. I encourage you to read the book again, and pray on it. ❤
@@martinecheverria5968 How is that foreshadowing Jesus? The son of David died for his father's sin! Did Jesus die for his father's sin? The acrobatics
Father acquires property by sinful ways and son will inherit the property but not the sin. Is it not stupid
What about achan who kept valuables for himself. God had achan, and his sons and daughters stoned.
People worship this psychopath?
Thats a great point.
That's why I'm scared of reading the whole bible because I know the little faith I have would shatter.
Would you then say that there is an internal contradiction because God takes the first born child of Bathsheba for what david and Bathsheba did 🤔🤔
Lean not to your own understanding.... It all sounds good when you say it that doesn't make it true or right ...... !
My father was a paid kLl3r for army...lots...he suffered and I believe I do now...
Couldn’t disagree more. Adam sinned, we all die. God can “visit” someone with mercy in other words and calls a woman that is barren to become with child. Ergo he can visit The iniquity of the fathers onto the children to the third and fourth generations. Also Deuteronomy 24 verse 16 has nothing to do with what God can do that’s corporeal punishment between humans as we find in second Chronicles 25.
David sinned and his eighth day old baby died due to chillul Hashem from the acts that caused it(the sin)
God will give some children great parents and god will give some children evil parents. God is god.
Than why did have Saul children have to die because of Saul's lack of faith in God answer that one slick. And they did David's lust baby have to die because David couldn't keep it in his robes because he feel in lust with soldier Uriah wife after he pretty much put Uriah to death out in the desert so that David could have Uriah wife. So don't tell me that children don't pay for the price of their parents sins.
Great observations
It hard my mom cussed me out
Then how can our descendants come back to be righteous
By having faith. Ultimately, we are held accountable by all the things we've done wrong according to the law. That's why it's called the Judgment. Of course, because of Jesus Christ we are free from the curse of disobeying the law (*death*) and if we have faith we will be forgiven. However, this faith has to be sincere and truly repentance - there is no forgiveness without restitution! We must follow the law of God (ALL the law as best as we can, I recommend searching up 'The 613 Commandments by Messianic Torah Observant Israel' but you should look at the Bible itself) in order to prove we are truly sorry. Does this mean you are saved by how many things you do according to the law? No, for only faith is the signature needed to be a child of God. But should we obey? Absolutely. Be blessed, shalom!
No mate it says prepare slaughter for thier children for the sins of their fathers What are you talking about?
0:30 "visits" means take a count of? No, no, no, Sean. You do not realize how sin adversely effects the genetic code and that parents pass on mutated genes in their chromosomes.
You're preaching from a lack of knowledge and merely placing an interpretation to line up with your belief. Eisegesis.
1:04 wrong. You confused the punishment from men versus the consequences of parental sin. God instructed mankind to not kill a son as a result of his father's sin. However, consequences of a father's sin may result in a baby dying. Two different things. Look at David's and Bathsheba's son. He died as a result of their adultery.
How then would you exeget exodus 20:5 that other people will claim that God is unjust?
@@Jesus_is_Lord-
The Bible repeatedly teaches a cause and effect. When we sin, it may result in errors in our genetic code. Those erros may be passed on.
Never blame God for mankind's own sins and transgressions and the consequences.
If a good submarine crashes because of captain's error, you don't blame the manufacture.
In fact, even after the captain crashes the submarine and dies. No manufacturer can revive them, but God can and does.
People want to blame God for something He didn't do, but won't give God the credit for something He does.
Summary:
Sin is always earned ( called a wage), it is never gifted. Each is judged according to their own deeds.
Salvation is always a gift and cannot be earned. God offers the free gift of salvation from your sins based on the price He paid on the cross to purchase us from the slavery to our sins.
@@universalchiro Thank you for giving your insights. Sorry for necro-posting a 5 month old comment :D God bless!
universalchiro , Cherub! Blessings and Peace to you for revealing this truth. I teach the same truth to enlighten others! It’s great to see another who is on the Path of us Magi✡️, guide the world out of darkness. Peace from the Magi Hypnotist in the East. ❤️🇲🇦🇺🇸✡️📿🙏🏾
@@universalchiro what if a child who has sinful genetic code repents? Does his code get blotted and he now becomes a child of God
I think if you did wrong like if you break your mom's vase and lied they know its you and they will keep turning mad but if you tell the truth they wont be mad but get a mad a little and they will slap your our do chores or be in bath or grounded you beacuse you deserve it
It's clear what God stated in Exodus 20:5. And let God word be true and man's interpretation.... I will abide by Gods word and not man's .
If God said he wants a rerun of mass child murder like with the amalekites would you be up for a child murderer excursion? You can't disobey your loving compassionate caring infinitely just merciful God now can you
😢😔
Do a more specific question question: do white people need to repent of slavery? Do people generally need to repent of their ancestors sins? Etc.
No and no. Sin isn’t real and a tyrant in the sky punishing someone for what their family members did is completely psychopathic. I don’t understand how anyone can believe in such a hateful deity
God does not punish! We are not punished for our sins, we are punished by our sins; we suffer the consequences of our own actions. That is the only "punishment" meted out by God.
@Sal Santiago
Punishment is actually not a very effective teacher! It may teach people not to do something, but at a great cost to their spiritual progress and ability to Love themselves, to Love life and to Love others; which is the ultimate lesson.
Those who receive punishment are full of shame, anger and resentment; and this is a hell they must learn to release themselves from.
Because punishment leads to further sinful entrenchment and misery, it's ultimately counterproductive to spiritual progress.
Punishment is man's way to remedy crimes and mistakes! And humankind has yet to recognize its ineffectiveness.
Punishment perpetuates pain and negativity, and does nothing to heal it.
All crimes, mistakes and suffering are caused by our "sinful nature."
So the solution is not to entrench people further into their sin by punishing them, but to give them what might help them see that they are not sinners.
Love is what heals and brings people out of their "sinful nature," and nothing else.
Love, acceptance, kindness, compassion and attention; these are the balms that heal.
Why does Deuteronomy 23:2 disqualify illegitimate children from Israelite citizenship?
@@bailujen8052
You must understand that everything Jesus taught was in direct conflict and opposition to what religious authorities taught - which was why religious authorities hated and crucified Jesus - since Jesus was robbing religious authorities of their exalted positions as "personal henchmen" of the "Almighty".
What I am saying is that the Bible has been cherry picked many times by religious authorities - they just don't admit it - that's all.
If religious authorities did admit in cherry picking the Bible - then that would mean the end of their religion - which gives them comfort and security.
You see - religious authorities will do anything to guard their own individuality and their religious beliefs - that they will reject those whom God sends - all because God's TRUTH doesn't match up with theirs.
That is why Jesus had to expose religious authorities - because they do more damge than healing.
@@edgarmorales4476 sounds like lucifer trying to overthrow Gods kingdom
Except for the times where God explicitly doles out punishment, see the flood, Sodom and Gomorrah, the times when he punished Israel for rebelliousness in the desert on the way out of Egypt, to using Israel to punish the wickedness of the inhabitants if Canaan, etc.
so true. this is why bong bong marcos is deserving to be president
Way to try to talk around the plain meaning. "for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing children for the iniquity of parents..." (Ex 20:5a, NRSV).
The simpler explanation is that the Bible was written and edited by men, over many years, and not divinely inspired. The fact that you can find other passages contradictions this doesn't make this one mean anything different; it just means there's a contraction. Not all of its purported morals are good.
We shouldn't take the things we like from the Bible and use it to support our own means. If this was really true, then we can't trust the Bible at all. But if we allowed the Bible to speak for it self and at least call the Tanakh (Old Testament) and Protestant New Testament to be true (Not a Protestant or a Catholic), then we run into much much less strife. We've got to approach this in prayer and even fasting, we can just deny one part and accept another because "we like it".
The following verse says I will bless a thousand generations of those who love me
And what about the several direct cases of God's wrath on kids, the most famous being the death of Egypt's firstborns because of the Pharaoh's actions? Or the slaughter of the Amorites, children included, acted because of the sins accumulated in four generations (Genesis 15:16).
I find the video quite weak: to try to justify God's action as moral accordingly to modern human values is vanity and search for views and subscribers. I find much more powerful the apologetic answer of John Piper: God is above good and bad, and if he were to slaughter me today there would not be anything morally wrong with it. My life is only temporary in any case, I will be judged justly. The children of Egypt were not punished by being killed.
More good examples of YHWH's bad morals.
Modern christianity for you
@Shannon Rego You still have to justify the actions of God before Jesus, as the Father is the Son. You cannot believe that God was immoral before Jesus but later he "changed his mind". You need a consistent view.

@@bobon123 the old testemant is an instruction on how to understand the new testament
“Take account of” bwahaha 😹 this is the most blatant bending of scripture to fit your narrative I have ever heard. Have you read the one about using the lords name in vain? You might want to look into it.
My friend please when you speak about God do not speak about him dressed like a child, try dressing formally.have a good day .
Don't judge❤
Thanks for that perhaps I was to rude, my apologies ,but just imagine a pastor dressed like that in church, what do you think other people will think about him.
Ishame on you for changing the scripture If you have read the entire old testament you cannot make that argument that god doesn't punish Their children It says it many times over Even up to the tenth Generation They won't be punished The bible is a terrible book that was written a long time ago when knowledge was a fraction of what it today Don't teach the stuff 2 our children Donkeys don't talk snakes don't talk And sticks don't just magically turn into snakes 😊
You're right. I'm almost woke.
