Buds Breakdown Study Of Hebrews 12:6

Hebrews 12:6 (King James Version)
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

(My View)

The chastening of the Father is a lifetime work that He performs in us, that we may continually be found a Holy Temple for Christ to dwell in. His plan for our life is deeper than we could ever imagine, but we must be willing to go to those unimaginable depths to obtain the deep perfection.

(Keep This In Mind)

When we become born again whether man, women, boy or girl, our life has been changed. Our old nature dies and a new nature is birthed in us. That nature is Christ. Now when the Father looks at our life, He no longer sees us as the sinful flesh we was, nor does He see us as we are, but He sees His own Son, Christ Jesus. Our life is, in a way a mirror, to reflect back the full self portrait of Christ. This is how He calls all of us, men and women alike, Son.

(The Breakdown)

Your Heavenly Father loves you to much, not to correct you (bring you into more perfect peace and purity, as He desires that you become more whole in fellowship with Him every hour.) Because His great love for you, He will chasteneth you. He is bringing you into a stronger place of His love. And He will punish wrongness, (flesh and your sinful life) and even bring your flesh to the point of drawing blood (asking you to lay down your life and pick up your cross and follow Christ, and die to all sinful flesh) but He leads you His Son here, so He can receive you and draw you close to His heart. (You can only be near Him if you die out wholly. For no man hath seen God and lived.)

(Last Thought)

Its time for us to die… so we can truly live in the fullness of His Perfect Holiness, and Everlasting Peace. Don’t be mad that He has brought you to the place of death, but be glad He has counted you worthy of His Grace to sustain you. And don’t stop His loving chastening hand, for He is doing it out of perfect love… for your good, and the good of the Kingdom.
