Children are Punished for the Sins of their Parents.

I, the Lord thy God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquities of the fathers upon the children. ([Ex. 20 : 5].)

Because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die. ([2 Sam. 12 : 14].)

Children are Not Punished for the Sins of their Parents.

The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father. ([Ezek. 18 : 20].)

Neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers. ([Deut. 24 : 16].)


Man is Justified by Faith Alone.

By the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified. ([Rom. 3 : 20].)
