I believe that familiar spirits can be passed down from one generation to the next, and the same sins become evident for each of the down side generations as before.
I know of various sins on my wifes side of the family and my side of the family that have been handed down from no other means but via the spiritual side of things, as these sins were not taught.
That old saying, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree....
The laws of Agriculture dictate this much: The seed of one generation is reproduced in the next generation, be it altered or not, the reproduction process follows after that which was before.
And the same goes for the spiritual. God's word does teach us that much.
So now do we have to go search the scriptures to prove it? So much homework this forum creates. :-?
I'll try to put it as simply as I can. Pardon my writing. I am not a technical writer and this is only a draft writing. not some long thesis on the subject. :-? so please bear with me and just see if you grasp what I mean to get across here. Of course what we learned in our science classes in school should have meant for good purpose for something.... Yes? Revelations anyone ?
The process of all science, agriculture, botany, biology, chemistry... is revealed in the bible. It would just take all too long a time to compile the information and bring it back to this forum and post it the tiny space allotted for one message. :-?
The science of botany is not much different than the science of Biology in the way in which the growth "process" takes place. Each is subject to be affected by the manipulations of chemical input and chemical subtractions.
If you think about the way in which the plant is manipulated by man or is altered by the forces in nature, e.g., man hybrids plants to create a new breed or an altered breed for his own purpose, or, the forces of nature, drought, over-stimulation of environmental factors, these all change chemical composition. If there are no other alterations, so to speak, the composition of the plant remains the same and the offspring follows suite.
I believe that man is no different in this process, in that we feed our bodies vitamins and minerals, etc., and thereby, create change in the physical appearance and overall structure of the body. I also believe that the same stand true for the mental (spiritual) process.
There are laws of order that God set in place. We are not an exception to that rule of order.
Same goes for cooking. if you change the recipe, you'll get a different flavor, be it a good one or not, depends on the compostion within.
Did you know that if two people cook the same recipe that they will not tastes exactly the same. Ever wonder why? 8-)
The bible teaches us the order of creation, and how... "that which is, follows that which was before".
Nothing happens without a change in the present pattern of things.
A bright yellow rose is still a bright yellow rose, but add or subtract a component and you will have rose
that is relative to what it was before but altered in some way or another in accordance to the 'added" or "subtracted" component. This "new" pattern will carry on in it's reproduction process until another change takes place. And IF the components which were added or subtracted are in anyway "progressive" in their own nature, then we would see the these so called "normalities, "deformities" or "abnormalities" (whatever they are liken to produce) come to fruition in future "crops".
Again,
The seed of one generation is reproduced in the next generation, be it altered or not, the reproduction process follows after that which was before.
Jesus was trying to get the message across in many of His teachings. The Spiritual takes after it's kind. Principalities are alive according to the seed they came out of.
Repentance is crucial. The Word of God is a healing balm. It is not the cruelity that so many people seem to think it is. Just because a branch needs to be pruned doesn't mean God is cruel! God is a loving God. He tends to His sheep and He tends to His garden, He tends to HIS people. IF only they are willing to follow. :roll: God gave us "will". It is our responsibility to use it wisely. We are free to use our will as we will, but it is our responsibility to learn and understand the LAWS OF ORDER in God's Creation, the spiritual and the material. Too many people take that for granted. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
We can take it or leave it. But to not take this gift, is a dire mistake. Accept Jesus and His teachings. And our lives will be changed for the "better".
We take off the old and put on the new. It's Spiritual chemistry.
Sorry if my wording was not "technical" enough. I'm not a science writer.
But I do understand the way in which material and spiritual are connected in this world. The bible teaches us that much.
I hope this made clear enough sense to you. I don't know how else to write it without taking the long time to provide already existing techincal data and edit this message. .
