Do Children Pay for Their Father's Sin? (The Bible Says Both — Here's Why)

Two verses in your Bible seem to call each other liars: one says children pay for a father's sin, the other says they never do. Both are God's words. So which is it? We walk it out plain, Exodus and Ezekiel, Achan, King David's house, and the day someone asked Jesus this exact question to His face. And we find the one distinction most folks read right past their whole lives, the difference between the consequence you inherit and the guilt you don't. If you've ever feared your last name was a diagnosis, this one's for you.
