God’s Discipline #

Pro 3:11-12 - My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction: 12 For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.

Intro.

There is a whole passage in Hebrews 12 that talks about the discipline of the Lord! It is very helpful. Hear, we have Solomons wise words on the matter. These verses are a little different in the previous sets, because, before, we have a reward, here, we just have reason. There is reward, and it is great… it is just not mentioned clearly here.

A. Fictional - False Image #

1. Virtual Image #

  • One of the greatest inherent dangers of the internet, is anyone with a little computer knowledge, can create a website, false credentials, and look good on a website!
  • Crooks, scam artists, the identity thieves do it
  • One of my problems with ‘virtual church’

2. Social Media #

  • Image you portray online… what do you paint as yourself.
  • People often mask who they are, and what they represent.
  • This is a serious danger of meeting people online
  • Police do this in sting operations, posing as someone they are not.

3. Who you really are??? #

  • You know in your heart, what is in there.

Heb. 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
