What excuses do you use for your sins? (Jeremiah 31:29-30)

Jeremiah 31:29-30

The Message (MSG)

²⁹ “When that time comes you won’t hear the old proverb anymore,

Parents ate the green apples,
their children got the stomachache.

³⁰ “No, each person will pay for his own sin. You eat green apples, you’re the one who gets sick.

The people tried to blame God's judgment on the sins of their fathers. One person's sin does indeed affect other people, but all people are still held personally accountable for the sin in their own lives. What excuses do you use for your sins?
