Two Familes

Some people have questioned why Achan's family had to die with him because of his sin. We are not told in Scripture if his family was in on the sin or not but we certainly know that one person's sin can affect the whole body.
Just as Achan's family suffered death because of his sin Rahab's family was saved because of her faith. How we live does affect our family. Though salvation is personal and individual we do not live in isolation. What each of us does affects the whole body and certainly our whole family.
Thanks to Pete for this insight.
