Exodus 20:5-6 (also Dt 5:9) I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.

Luke 11:50-51 New International Version
(NIV) 50 Therefore this generation will be held responsible for the
blood of all the prophets that
has been shed since the
beginning of the world, 51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who
was killed between the altar
and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell
you, this generation will be
held responsible for it all.

Deuteronomy 24:16 Fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor children put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin.

Ezekiel 18:20 The soul who sins is the one who will die. The son will not share the guilt of the father, nor will the father share the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous man will be credited to him, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against him.

Did the same God 'inspire' this?

Hi Mahdi

I notice you like to cut and paste different verses from the bible to get discussions going but then you dont follw them up. For example ypu started something with "Christians You are not Israelites" , and then we dont hear from you again. My advice is not to start discussions unless you can finish them.

Any way

Gods blessings on you.
