The Heritage Scheme Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 18, 2021

Quite possibly, the sneakiest scheme of the devil is how he can keep us unaware of sin. The devil is able to mask sin through heritage, and sin is a disease that can be passed through family lines. It's referred to as generational sin.

The iniquities of one generation can adversely affect future ones unless those sins are renounced and . . . heritage in Christ is claimed. - Neil Anderson(1) Quite possibly, the sneakiest scheme of the devil is how he can keep us unaware of sin. Satan knows that if we’re left unaware of certain ...read more

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 5, 2022
