So, you don't believe in interceding for the lost?

Does this High Priest offer ANNUAL sacrifices for our sins? Or was there ONE sacrifice made which paid for all sins forever. So when I repented of my sins and was baptized years ago, that settled it. I didn't need to petition God for dead ancestors. I didn't need to answer for whatever sins my parents may have committed during their life. Or my cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, etc.

No one said that anyone is to petition God for dead ancestors.
Repenting of ancestral sin means - not continuing in it yourself (typically resolved upon being born again, but can be done afterwards if one discovers that what they are continuing in is sin) and working to end the effects of our ancestor's sin in the present.
That is all I can see anyone saying.
Can you quote were anyone said we are to petition God for dead ancestors?

Did I say you did? Please reference the post where I did this.

When I mentioned the act of interceding for our communities, and the leaders of our nation, by confessing the continued sin of our ancestors, and righting their wrongs as a part of our priestly duties as a royal priesthood... you brought up how we no longer have a Levitical Priesthood to counter the notion, did you not?
