Revelation 3:19 (KJV) As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.LOVE/REBUKE/CHASTEN: God loves us but will not t o l e r a t e our sin nor our willingness to live in our sinfulness. God himself r e b u k e s sinfulness and so does the God called preacher and so should the Christian concerning his sin. Never excuse your sin!God will c h a s t e n the wayward child of God but when there is no chastening from the Lord then you can’t claim God as your Father.Hebrews 12:8 (KJV) But if ye be W I T H O U T chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye B A S T A R D S, and NOT sons.
