Renewing Our Strength in the Lord:

God’s Loving Discipline

Life B-P Church Worship Services I & II

15^th June 2025

Text: Hebrews 12:3-11

This study is to explore the concept of God’s discipline as a form of loving training for Christians, drawing parallels with military, sports, and aviation training.

There are four main points drawn from the text:

1. God’s preparation for chastisement (v.1-3)

2. The love behind God’s chastisement (v 5-6)

3. Chastisement as proof of sonship (v.7-9)

4. The goal of chastisement in producing holiness (v.10-11)

Key themes include:

• The ongoing nature of Christian training and growth
• God’s discipline as an expression of love
• The importance of enduring hardships as part of spiritual development
• The ultimate goal of discipline in producing righteousness and holiness

The purpose of God’s chastisement is meant for believers’ good, to help them grow in faith, overcome sin, and become more Christ-like. It encourages Christians to view difficulties and challenges as opportunities for spiritual growth rather than mere hardships.
