this is what a curse is to a Christian.

The whole deal of being free from that curse is just simply giving up your baggage

Why I really dont like this teaching, it implies that Jesus death on the cross wasnt enough to set us free

"Jesus died on the cross to save me from the second death, but because my great great gradfather was a mason I have to jump through some more hoops before I can be really free"

And the other problem, is that simply how are we supposed to know every sin that our ancestors comitted?

Generational sin isn't talking about every sin of our ancestors, it's talking about idol worshippers. I pray that no one made you jump through any hoops to be set free from the masonic curses. I didn't, all I did was renounce and rebuke those blood curses that I made and my ancestors had made.

Blessings.

Where does this stuff come from? Scripture does not teach generational curses. IMO, it is a doctrine of men.

The scriptures you cited from the Law of Moses are not curses; they are warnings. Anyhow, Christ has delivered us from the curse of the law being made a curse for us. What “curses” you imagine Christians having were placed on Christ and if your life is hidden with God in Christ, you are not cursed.

~Jim


I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.


Jim,

All of this has been passed around from hand to hand to hand, and it just keeps on whacking into the same old brickwall.

I know it and many, many other members of the healing and deliverance ministry know it, that many believers suffer unnecessary from the "for" and the "against" team on the church doctrine on Ex. 20:3-4.

If I hadn't experienced the dark shadows of my past practices and ancestral practices, and had heard the testimony of many more who had experienced the same as I did, I wouldn't be bothered commenting.

You can believe whatever you like, because I speak from personal experiences---NOT hearsay!

Blessings!

I can do all things through Christ, who gives me strength. Phi 4:13

This includes overcoming generational curses-

Yep, we submit to our Lord Jesus Christ, resist Satan and his forces, cleanse our hands, purify our hearts, and be humble; and when we do that we can overcome and conquer anything---can't we?:)

I agree , but is this what the average christian did when they accepted Jesus as lord and savour.
Or did they just say a simple prayer.

Apparently the early church did more than just get them to say a prayer, it included repentance and deliverance.

Sorry I think I have gone off topic.

Yes. There is spiritual trails that follow people who are into the occult, witchcraft, Satanism, and those who are addicted to drugs and alcohol, and those who are sexually perverse, abusing children and others, those who are sadistic and murder and rape.

Those demonic forces which are prevalent in those kinds of perversity will stick around families into the next generation.

When we come to Christ, from a background such as that, we are carrying a load of brokenness that we have no idea of. Attending to it by consciously renouncing those ties will break it off our lives, freeing us to move forward in our walk with Jesus, knowing that the effects of our parents or grandparents and beyond is totally wiped out.

The question stands

How are we supposed to know if our great great great great grandfather twice removed was an idol worshiper?

If you've got persistent trouble in an area that other family members do and did, then take charge of it by breaking it off.

ummm i believe that's what Phi4:13 says. what exactly are you saying.

Phillipians 4:13 is talking about the generosity of the Phillipians, and isn't talking about supernatural consequences of sin and many other things that need to be resisted and cleansed and purified from our soul.

You may be able to do "all things", until you hit a supernatural wall put there by the powers of darkness.

As I said before, when you submit to our Lord Jesus Christ; draw near to him; resist Satan and his forces; cleanse your hands of all sin; purify your heart of all sin; confess, repent, and forgive; and then be humble; then you might be doing "ALL THINGS".

Oh, by the way, that is written in James 4:7-10, stating that humility cures worldliness!

Blessings!:)

Yes, that really would be helpful please.

Not links to pages of teaching and ministries, but a handful of scriptures would be most useful - concise and uncluttered and without the added opinions and individual experiences etc. to filter through in order to find those scriptures.

The question stands

I think we can safely assume we all have those in our history.
It's highly likely that if we could go back even 3 or 4 generations we would find that all of us have idol-worshipping ancestors.

After all, that's what people did not very long ago in most of our countries - for thousands of years variations of pagan and occult practices preceded Christianity in Europe and America, and even today the vast majority of people we live among do not know God and give place either to atheism or to all kinds of antichristian belief without even realising it half the time.

How can we know if our distant relation was an idol worshipper?

Unbelievers are idol worshipers. We all have them in our pasts. We were also idol worshipers ourselves before we came to Christ--every one of us.

You'd know by the trouble you'd be finding in your family and yourself, that it may stem from past family sin. Renunciation of all manner of occultic associations from ones' antecedents is a good rule of thumb when one is desiring total freedom in Christ.

I have learnt only to have prayer from people I trust so if I had a problem and the Holy Spirit revealed the problem through a word of knowledge I would be willing to repent renounce and forgive so the stronghold could be broken.

However I don't believe the Lord shows us anything that will create additional fear or distress in us.

You seem to have forgotten the "through Christ" in that scripture. we as Christians, and humans, can do nothing-- without Our Lord and Savior! But with Him can do everything.
it's KINDA a big deal. (Jesus). makes all the difference.
