Re: Are we to repent for our ancestors past sins?
All you can do is repent for yourself.
That is the Bible man can only repent for the sins he has done.
We are not like the nation of Israel who were a community where everyone was together as union. They had marriages between tribes. They were taught by tribal elders, and judged by those elders. We are totally different. We are reborn, into a new nation, and become a new people.
