It is the one who sins who will die. A child is not to bear his father’s guilt nor a father his child’s guilt. Good people will be credited for their own righteousness and the wicked with his own wickedness.” “However, if the wicked man renounces all the sins he has committed, obeys my laws, and does what is fair and upright, he will most certainly live and will not die. I will not remember any of the sins he committed in the past. Because he has done what is right, he will most certainly live. I, Lord YAHWEH, say: Do you think I enjoy seeing the wicked die? I would much rather see him renounce his sins and live!

Join us over the next 30 days as we learn to embrace responsibility.
