COMFORT ZONE

And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? - Luke‬ ‭6‬:‭46‬

IS THIS A REBUKE?

Why "endure" . . .
sound doctrine?

Rebuke and correction may
sometime cause 'discomfort'.

Exhortation and encouraging words - words to comfort

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. - 2 Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭2‬

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: - 2 Timothy‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬

Rebuke with all long-suffering

Why call ye me Lord

Rebuke not an elder

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. - 2 Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭3-4‬

If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against the Lord, who shall entreat for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because the Lord would slay them. - ‭1 Samuel‬ ‭2‬:‭25‬

For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knoweth; because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not. - 1 Samuel‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬

For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him. - Genesis‬ ‭18‬:‭19‬
