DYNAMIC #1: Discipline
God disciplines those he loves (his children).
Those God does not disciple are not his children.

Why Discipline?
It works
2 Cor 2:6-
It’s God’s Will
It is for your Growth
QUESTIONS:
Is God’s Word actively forming you to the image of Christ?
Are you dealing with sin in your life?
Are you open to receive admonishment?
Are you helping another deal with their sin?
