Hebrews 12:7 in Context — Hebrews 12
5 Y estáis ya olvidados de la exhortación que como con hijos habla con vosotros, [diciendo]: Hijo mío, no menosprecies el castigo del Señor, ni desmayes cuando eres de él reprendido.
6 Porque el Señor al que ama castiga, y azota á cualquiera que recibe por hijo.
7 Si sufrís el castigo, Dios se os presenta como á hijos; porque ¿qué hijo es [aquel] á quien el padre no castiga?
8 Mas si estáis fuera del castigo, del cual todos han sido hechos participantes, luego sois bastardos, y no hijos.
9 Por otra parte, tuvimos por castigadores á los padres de nuestra carne, y los reverenciábamos, ¿por qué no obedeceremos mucho mejor al Padre de los espíritus, y viviremos?
