Pro 23:14 You shall whip him with the rod and deliver his life from Sheol (Hades, the place of the dead). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a parent correcting his child: accompanied with prayer, and blessed of God, it may prove a means of preventing his destruction. Here is a parent encouraging his child, telling him what would be for his good. And what a comfort it would be, if herein he answered his expectation! 17,18. The believer's expectation shall not be disappointed; the end of his trials, and of the sinner's prosperity, is at hand.

Paraphrased: "Disciplined children avoid trouble and Hell." When on other forums and atheists balk at disciplining children, the atheist children of Christian parents defend the practice of spankings! They work. Talk to your children about what they did wrong, then discipline them, never while angry. The rod AND reproof give wisdom, or if you like, the reproof AND rod give wisdom to children.

If I didn't have them, I'd be in jail already when they got there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
