Bear With The Word Of Exhortation

 
Hebrews 13:20-22

"Now may the God of peace, who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you complete IN EVERY GOOD WORK to do His will, WORKING IN YOU what is well pleasing IN HIS SIGHT, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen. And I appeal to you, brethren, BEAR WITH THE WORD OF EXHORTATION, for I have written to you in few words."

After completing chiropractic school and attaining licensure to practice in Ohio, I became aware that "continuing education" was required by the state licensing board. The SLB would submit a list of 30-40 seminars available and acceptable and I CHOSE THE CONTINUING EDUCATION that seemed best to me.

"You have forgotten the EXHORTATION which speaks to you AS to sons"................."we have had human fathers who corrected us"..........."for they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but HE FOR OUR PROFIT, THAT WE MAY BE PARTAKERS OF HIS HOLINESS". (Hebrews 12:5, 9, 10)

We can rejoice that the God of peace will work in us what is well pleasing in His sight- making us complete in every good work through Jesus Christ: the living word to us. But, it will be through His chastening; His choice for continuing your education!
