-
"And ye have forgotten the
exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My
son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor
faint when thou art rebuked of him:
For whom the Lord
loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he
receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God
dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom
the father chasteneth not? But if ye be without
chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye
bastards, and not sons. Furthermore we have had fathers
of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them
reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection
unto the Father of spirits, and live? For they verily
for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure;
but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his
holiness. Now no chastening for the present seemeth to
be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it
yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them
which are exercised thereby."
