Spring forth!

The Holy Spirit convicts the world because of sin. And of judgement because they believe not in Jesus Christ. Discouragement comes from a weak heart. Jesus said, "As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten". No chastening from the Lord is pleasant and sometimes may be harsh.  What ever pressure is necessary, even to be delivered to Satan for the destruction of the flesh that some may learn not to blaspheme. To this end: that Christ may be formed in us who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. So that the peaceable fruit of righteousness may spring forth.
