Verses (ESV) on Discipline
Abstract: If you have no discipline, you will never be able to teach anything. Discipline creates the environment in which learning can take place. Here are some Biblical principles for discipline in the godly home.
Hebrews 12:11: For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
Proverbs 29:17: Discipline your son, and he will give you rest; he will give delight to your heart.
Revelation 3:19: Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent.
Proverbs 5:23: He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly he is led astray.
Proverbs 22:6: Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:15: Folly is bound up in the heart of a child, but the rod of discipline drives it far from him.
Proverbs 23:13: Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die.
Proverbs 13:24: Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him.
Ephesians 6:1: Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
1 Timothy 3:2, 4-5: An overseer…must be one who manages his own household well, keeping his children under control with all dignity (but if a man does not know how to manage his own household, how will he take care of the church of God?)
Romans 1:29: They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness ….
Ecclesiastes 8:1: Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed speedily, the heart of the children of man is fully set to do evil.
