Chapter 15: That Ancient Serpent

1. How does Satan's knowledge of generational sin influence how he tempts individuals?

Satan knows what sins past generations have dealt with, and he uses the same weaknesses to try to make present and future generations fall.


2. What have you seen in yourself that you disliked in a parent or grandparent?

Pride.


3. Why is forgiveness so important to breaking yokes of generational sin?

When we forgive the generations who have made mistakes before us, we let go of the feelings of resentment and become more able to withstand making those same mistakes.


4. How do the sins of the father's increase the vulnerability of the children?

When a child grows up seeing a parent continually do something, the child quickly learns to do the same and may not even realize that they are doing it.
