Proverbs 23:13-14: Ànd What it means to all people,

 Proverbs 23: 13-14: And What it means to All People!! By Anthony Joseph Hopkins November 4, 2021

 

 Are we supposed to use a rod to punish a child?  A rod is a metal object that is used in construction.  A rod is a thin straight bar especially that is made up of wood or metal.  When it comes to disciplining a child, a belt is used.  According to WHIO TV Channel 7 in Dayton, Ohio.  On Thursday October 28. 2021, a father of a ten-year-old child was sentenced to 51 years in prison for killing his son.  

 

The mother and friend of the family received prison sentences for participating in the crime.  Recently, another child was beaten 200 times with a belt in Springfield, Ohio.  A Biblical example comes from Proverbs 23:13. This Bible verse says Do not withhold correction from a child for if you beat him with a rod he will not die.  I guess the two examples of the incidents in the State of Ohio proves that the parents took things too far.  


Next, when it comes to these Bible verses, the parents did not exercise better judgment.  Another example of violence took place in Hamilton, Ohio.  A parent of a 6-year-old boy killed her son by dragging him with her car.  She attempted to give the child to the authorities prior to killing him, and throwing his body inside of the Ohio River.  Proverbs 23:14 says You shall beat him or her with a rod because you are delivering his or her soul from hell.  Is this a true statement?  Some parents are taking his too far.  

Proverbs 20:11 says Even a child is known by his deeds, whether what he does is pure and right.  This Bible verse is true.  I say this because a child learns how to sin from watching their parents.  When it comes to Proverbs 23:13-14, parents will have to exercise self-control.  In 2021 standards, some parents consider their children as their best friend.

God is with me right now

Good Morning and God Bless You 🙌 🙏  I want you to know that I still need your prayers 🙏  I know that My God is a God of Love and Peace.  I have given myself Life to Jesus Christ.   I know that I am still under a lot of pressure from someone who wants to replace me as a person.   This person is a Caucasian man, who  does not like African American People.  My neighbors are a well diverse group of people who used to live in the Southern United States.  My neighbors have access to my Social Media Account and my entire life is at great risk.  This is not a laughing matter because identity theft and fraud happens to all of us.  I know that My neighbors do not like me because my skin color is different from them.  This is a person who has been computer hacking me for only a short period of time.  I am asking all of you to please be careful when it comes to using any accounts.   God is with me right now.  Go...

EXPECTATIONS & HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS

Expectations & Human Relationships This is a report concerning the expectations when it pertains to human relationships. First, we must ask ourselves a question. What are expectations when it pertains to human relationships? Human Relationships consists of communication both direct and indirect. This means nonverbal and verbal communication as well as association. When we are in close contact with each other, we are learning what the other person is like. We are learning their habits, personality, as well as the way they conduct themselves around others. It does not matter whether these people are in our family or on the street. The best ways to communicate with anyone is by introducing yourself to another person and see what kind of response you will receive. Second, another way of communicating to others is by letter or online. Although this is classified as maintaining a false relationship or a pen-pal, but sometimes this leads into a relationship that is direct eventually, if t...

IS IT TRUE THAT GOD KNOWS EXACTLY HOW LONG WE ARE GOING TO LIVE?

Is it true that God knows exactly where we are at all times?  By Anthony Joseph Hopkins 11/19/2021        I have a very important question to ask everyone.  Is it true that God knows exactly where we are at all times?  The answer to this question is yes.  God knows exactly where we are at all times.  Where exactly shall I go from His Spirit?  The answer is no where because He is inside of us.  His Spirit bears with our spirit.  Where shall I go from His presence?  The answer is nowhere.  He is with us at all times.  If I ascend into heaven He is there.  If I make my bed into hell, He is there with us.        If you want me to be perfectly honest with all of you, we cannot hide from God.  He is watching all of us.  I want to inform all of you that I am asking this question because I would like for anyone to answer this question.  I know that everything th...
