Verses

Job 2:4-5

Satan answered the LORD and said, "Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has he will give for his life. However, put forth Your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh; he will curse You to Your face."

Hebrews 12:4-11

So far I haven't had the time to post anything of significance and since I am new to blogging I have been just posting things to get the hang of how everything works.  Anyway today is no different, but here is something of value:

4You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood in your striving against sin;
 5and you have forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you as sons,
         "MY SON, DO NOT REGARD LIGHTLY THE DISCIPLINE OF THE LORD,
         NOR FAINT WHEN YOU ARE REPROVED BY HIM;
    6FOR THOSE WHOM THE LORD LOVES HE DISCIPLINES,
         AND HE SCOURGES EVERY SON WHOM HE RECEIVES."
 7It is for discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?
 8But if you are without discipline, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.
 9Furthermore, we had earthly fathers to discipline us, and we respected them; shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of spirits, and live?
 10For they disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them, but He disciplines us for our good, so that we may share His holiness.
 11All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.


I mentioned that you read these verses in an earlier post.  I decide to post them here for your convenience.
