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.
9 Our earthly fathers correct us, and we still respect them. Isn't it even better to be given true life by letting our spiritual Father correct us?
