Refuting the Proverb of Inherited Guilt

Ezekiel 18:1-4
1
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: What is the meaning?
2
That you use among you this parable as a proverb in the land of Israel, saying: The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the teeth of the children are set on edge.
3
As I live, saith the Lord God, this parable shall be no more to you a proverb in Israel.
4
Behold all souls are mine: as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, the same shall die.
