- This is what the wisdom of Proverbs 13.

- The term opposes love.

But can anyone say, “I hate my son?How could I inflict pain on you? John Piper, in the video below, understands that this conception is the result of today’s culture and that he does not consider God Himself to discipline us through pain (Hebrews 12).
However, that is not all proverbs are talking about using the stick. Proverbs 29:15 declares that “The rod and the rebuke give wisdom, but the child given to himself shames his mother” and this is precisely the consequence of this proverbial wisdom that Sweden faces, in practice today, to forbid spanking: a generation of licked children.
It should be noted that the defence of fzotes is not a defense of physical violence. As John Piper says in the video, “Frapper is a controlled application of a non-harmful act of mild pain that makes the child see the seriousness of what he did. “In addition, it is very important to emphasize that the basis for the education of Christian children is not in corrective discipline (garrote), but in formation (teaching and dialogue):
Look, Israel, LORD our God is the only LORD. Thus you will love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and strength. These words I command you today will be in your heart; You will instill them in your children, and talk about them sitting at home, walking along the road, lying down, and getting up (Deuteronomy 6. 4-7).
“Show the child to walk, and even when he is older, he will not deviate from him” (Proverbs 22. 6).
