Hebrews 12:6-8

Mace(i) 6 for whom the Lord loveth, he chastises, and scourgeth every son whom he receives." 7 if you are to endure chastisement, God treats you as his children: for where's the son whom his father does not chastise? 8 but if you were exempted from that discipline which others are subject to, then are you bastards, and not sons.
