Question:
I am involved with a group and we seem to be on verge of disagreement. Exodus 20:5,6 as I understand it speaks specifically to the Jews for a specific time . Then later in Jeremiah 31:29-34, Ezekiel 18:2, etc. Aside from the fact that the blood of Messiah in Romans works and not to mention Galatians 3:13 where He took it on HIMself.

The Group leader just spoke of generational curses being at work in lives and I just got an email today about a school in Canada to teach and counsel of this and three other areas.... Am I the only one to see that (1) they were to those that hate me (2) Mercy to them that love me... (Chrisitans?) (3) the time is changed (4) a New Covenant (5) not to mention the work of the blood of Jesus in us is effectual.

Is there any basis I am missing to validate this rampart teaching though I really know there isn't.

Finally, I seem to recall a chapter that mentions this grape proverb three or four times? Perhaps my memory is in error. If not, refresh it for me as to book and chapter. Thank you.

My second area of concern regards teaching in the group. What is the basis if any for Christians having demons? The leaders say some have them and that some have been delivered of them though they are Messianic Jews and redeemed and Spirit filled. ?? Another says her friend was saved, filled by Spirit and required deliverance from Demonic Powers after saved and filled and walking in gifts for a time. If a basis, please give me Scriptures. If not, give me Scriptures. Thanks as I know this will be brought up shortly. I feel a house divided cannot stand and if the blood is covering us then any demons we had unsaved are driven out especially when the Holy Spirit baptizes us. Am I in error?
Answer:
Dear Stephen,

I am in full agreement with you that the passages to which you refer were written for the Jews. All of this removal of generational curses, etc., is based on the premise that these individuals need deliverance from demonic powers. If you will go to our Web site and read the article #78 – “Of Devils and Demons,” it addresses this specific question.

Best wishes,
Roy
