AboutBrenda Martin Expertise I have been one of Jehovah`s Witneses now for over 30 years, in those years I have brought up 4 children, teaching each of them the bible.Being one of Jehovah`s Witnesses has helped me cope with my Epilepsy and bring up a daughter with learning difficulties.I have conducted bible studies with people from nearly every denomination i.e. Muslim. Having used the bible all these years to answer peoples questions, I feel I am qualified to give any answer regarding Jehovah`s Witnesses and the bible.
Experience My experience has been one of attending bible lectures 5 times a week,taking part in these lectures in front of an audience and being with thousands of J.W. at conventions where I have seen the bible at work in peoples lives.It is truly a miracle when you see thousands of people meeting together and not one policeman needed, and not even a piece of litter in sight.It is like another world.
Why does god kill children for the sins of their partents. Is this fair? Can't a person still be good regardless of whether or not their parent's were bad? I find this cruel, and couldnt imagine killing an innocent child.
Thanks
Answer WHY DOES GOD KILL CHILDREN FOR THE SINS OF THEIR PARENTS?
God warned the nation of Israel that he was “bringing punishment for the error of fathers upon sons.” (Exodus 20:5) But that was one of the Mosaic laws that the Nation of Israel was under, it was abolished when Christ came.
Later on the bible tells us at Ezekiel 18:14, 17 “Look! one has become father to a son, who keeps seeing all the sins of his father that he has done, and he sees and does not do things like them. . . . He himself will not die because of the error of his father. He will positively keep living.”
God does not want anyone to be destroyed, so he is having a warning sounded now to benefit both parents and children.
