The protestants (or, rather, the loony Charismatics) with their whole “generational curse” thing are just as loony as the Papists who compare it to praying for the dead.
What curse or sin could possibly survive the blood of the lamb?
Well said.....
*We also have to REPENT.
*Included in repentance, that is, the desire not to sin again, is the effort to NOT commit those sins again.
We AVOID the "near occasion of sin." We KNOW all to well the lacunae in our souls and we CAN avoid the people, places, events, movies, magazines, books, etc., that cause us to sin.
Without the effort to avoid the "near occasions of sins" our repentance is only lip service.
It is prayers for the outpouring of the blood of the lamb to take care of healing the family tree.
“What curse or sin could possibly survive the blood of the lamb?”
None! Behind every lying spirit is a slander against the FINISHED work of Christ Jesus. Hebrews spells out the supremacy of Jesus and his once-for-all sacrifice in glorious detail. Because of Him we believers have something BETTER than those who only had shadows and copies of the heavenly things.
John testifies that “the law was given through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ”.
Better!
