According to Leviticus 5:17 �If a person sins and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord�s commands, even though he does not know it, he is guilty and will be held accountable.� Although the Book of Leviticus does not specify curses on the following acts, it still forbids: lying, cheating, stealing, eating blood or forbidden foods, body piercings and Tattoos (Leviticus 19:27-29). These sins likely bring curses since they are forbidden.

The Good News: An undeserved curse will not come to rest (Proverbs 26:2) and Believers can be set free of curses!

Who Is a Believer?
Because so many promises are given to those who are believers, it is important to know whom the Bible classifies as a believer. In the Greek "believe,� indicates one relying on Jesus Christ for salvation. In Acts 5:14 the word means unadulterated trust. In I Timothy 4:12� trueness, to entrust one's spiritual faith, assurance, well-being.
