2 We must keep our eyes on Jesus, who leads us and makes our faith complete. He endured the shame of being nailed to a cross, because he knew that later on he would be glad he did. Now he is seated at the right side of God's throne!
3 So keep your mind on Jesus, who put up with many insults from sinners. Then you won't get discouraged and give up.
4 None of you have yet been hurt in your battle against sin.
5 But you have forgotten that the Scriptures say to God's children,“When the Lord punishes you,don't make light of it,and when he corrects you,don't be discouraged.
6 The Lord corrects the peoplehe lovesand disciplines thosehe calls his own.”
7 Be patient when you are being corrected! This is how God treats his children. Don't all parents correct their children?
8 God corrects all his children, and if he doesn't correct you, then you don't really belong to him.
