*INTRODUCTION:
a. God the Father will also show His love and concern to all Christian
as His dear Children.
( Psalms 121:4-8) 3 He will not suffer thy foot to
be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel
shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD
is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by
day, nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD shall preserve thee
from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
8 The LORD shall preserve thy
going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
b. That is how express His love and affection to the believers of Christ
as His dear Children.
c. But God is always reminding us to equally yoke with the unbelievers
and do all the sinful things of the unbeliever or the lost people in the World.
d. If Christian will live sinful life style of the unbelievers God will
discipline us as His dear Children.
( Hebrews 12:5-11) 5 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:
6 For whom the Lord loveth he
chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 If ye endure chastening, God
dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth
not?
8 But if ye be without
chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
9 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?
10 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.
11 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.

SON AND NOT A BASTARD.
(Hebrews 12:6-8) 6 For whom the Lord loveth he
chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 If ye endure chastening, God
dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth
not?
8 But if ye be without
chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

4. GOD DISCIPLINE HIS CHILDREN TO SEE THEM THAT THEY ARE
SUBMITTING UNDER GOD'S AUTORITHY THAT PLEASE GOD.
( Hebrews 12:9 ) Furthermore we have had fathers of

* God's discipline His dear Children are for their own good to bring
back the holiness that already enjoying during the time that Christians are
living in holiness.

you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
[16]Because it is written, Be ye
holy; for I am holy.
( II Timothy 2:21 ) [21]If a man therefore purge
himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for
the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.
* God bless you all
