Episode Title: Chastisement 

Have you ever looked at the world and wondered why the unrighteous seem to live completely care-free, while you are facing fiery trials and heavy tribulations?

Chastisement.

While modern culture and media figures like Dr. Phil teach that parental discipline makes children violent, Sister Deborah asks a defining question for every believer: Do you believe the word of man, or the word of God? Pulling heavily from Hebrews 12, she reveals that pain-inflicted correction—done purely out of love and never out of anger—is a fundamental, biblical sign of true sonship.

If you are a believer going through a season of difficulty, hitting a brick wall, or feeling the heavy correction of the Holy Ghost, don't get weary! Sister Deborah breaks down why a lack of discipline means you are an illegitimate child, why parental correction must happen early before a child becomes a hard-hearted teenager, and how God uses spiritual correction to detour our souls away from a devil's hell. From a hilarious yet sobering look at the DNA testing on the Maury show to a direct confrontation of the works of the flesh, this episode is a wake-up call to stay on "Straight Street" and yield the peaceable fruit of righteousness.

Key Takeaways & Themes


Chastisement is Proof of Love: God doesn't discipline those who don't belong to Him. If the Lord is correcting you when you step off track, it is the ultimate proof that you are His child.


The Danger of No Correction: To live a lifestyle of sin (fornicating, lying, drinking, or holding hatred) without ever feeling the sting of conviction or correction means you are operating as an illegitimate child.


Discipline Your Children Betimes: Pulling from Proverbs, Sister Deborah emphasizes training and correcting children while they are young and there is still hope—before they bring their parents to public shame or end up corrected by the prison system.


The End Goal is Holiness: God’s whippings are never for his amusement; they are for our profit so that we might be partakers of His holiness and safely make the journey from earth to heaven.
