DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thomas Brooks emphasizes that God's discipline is a sign of His love, as
seen in Hebrews 12:6, where it states that the Lord disciplines those He
loves. He warns that the absence of correction indicates God's wrath and
a path toward destruction, suggesting that those who are not disciplined
are in grave danger. Brooks asserts that true anger from God is revealed
in His silence and lack of correction, urging believers to reflect on
their lives and accept God's rebuke as a sign of His care. The sermon
calls for a serious meditation on God's discipline and the importance of
being receptive to His guidance.

"The Lord disciplines the one He loves, and

punishes every son whom He receives." Heb. 12:6

There cannot be a greater evidence of God's

hatred and wrath--than His refusing to correct

men for their sinful courses and vanities!

Where God refuses to correct--there God resolves

to destroy! There is no man so near God's axe--so

near the flames--so near hell--as he whom God

will not so much as spend a rod upon!

"Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline."

Revelation 3:19

God is most angry--when He shows no anger!

Who can seriously meditate upon this, and not

be silent under God's most smarting rod?
