- 0:05You're listening to Compass Point with Pete Smith.
- 0:08Our text today is Proverbs 13, verse 18.
- 0:11Poverty and shame will come to him who ignores correction, but
- 0:15he who regards reproof will be honoured.
- 0:17It should not be surprising that what is naturally most
- 0:20distasteful, discipline, correction, restraint, reproof,
- 0:23rebuke, is taught by the Word of God as being essential to 1's
- 0:27well-being and to reap ultimate respect and reward.
- 0:31It is to our peril, if we give in to permissiveness, to
- 0:35disregard authority and advice, whether personally, in our
- 0:39family or in our church fellowship.
- 0:41It takes grace to receive admonition.
- 0:43May we as believers exercise that grace.
- 0:46In fact, let us all take this message to heart.
- 0:49Maybe today, friend, you need to allow Christ to be Lord in your
- 0:53life and bow to His authority.
