Essential Historical Penance



Our culture is so highly individualistic that we don’t realize that without repentance for sins of past generations they will be perpetuated for future generations.

Psalm 106:6
Both we and our ancestors have sinned.

Psalm 106:15
(God) gave them what they asked, but sent a wasting disease among them.

Psalm 79:8
Do not remember against us the iniquities of our ancestors.

Luke 11:47 (see also Matthew 23:29)
You build the tombs of the prophets whom your ancestors killed.

Matthew 3:8; Luke 3:8
Bear fruit worthy of repentance.
