My lovely visitors,

My name is Ariel. I am just a sinful man saved by the precious blood of Christ and graciously clothed by his raiment of righteousness, which he triumphantly wrought at the cross of calvary. I live somewhere here in the Philippines. I love to write, read, and listen to classical compositions.

I like all things beautiful from the fairest white to the meanest black.

I love my God: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

I read Homer's, Virgil's, Hesiod's, Aeschylus', Pliny's, Ovid's, Plutarch's, and Pindar's great works.

Here, I post excerpts from the writings of the great Puritans like Thomas Brooks, Samuel Rutherford, Thomas Watson, Octavius Winslow, and others.

In this blog you will find beautiful pictures of food, animals, heaven, toddlers, flowers, women, dress, ocean, house, etc.

Also, I write love-letters to my future wife as a token of love to her.

Grace, grace be with you, my lovely visitors. Yours always in Christ, Ariel.

You shall beat him with the rod, and shall deliver his soul from hell.”  Proverbs 23:13-14  God uses the rod to prevent further folly, mischief, and misery. It is said of the ape, that she hugs her young ones to death; so many fond parents, by not correcting their children, they come to slay their children. The best way to prevent their being scourged with scorpions in hell, is to chastise them with the rod here. So God takes up the rod; He afflicts and chastises His dearest children, but it is to prevent soul-mischief and misery; it is to prevent pride, self-love, worldliness, etc. The rod is to purge out that vanity and folly that is bound up in the heart of the child. Proverbs 22:15, “Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child, but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.” The rod is an ordinance, as well as the word; and such parents who use it as an ordinance—praying and weeping over it—shall find it effectual for the chasing away of evil out of their children’s heart. Eli and David were two very choice men, and yet, by their fondness on one hand, and neglect of this ordinance on the other hand, they ruined their sons; and whether they did not undo their souls, I shall not at this time stand to inquire. When Moses cast away his rod, it became a serpent; and so, when parents cast away the rod of correction, it is ten to one but that their children become the brood of the serpent: Proverbs 13:24, “He who spares his rod hates his son; but he who loves him chastens him often.” Not only the care, but also the cure of the child—so far as the rod will reach—lies upon the hands of the parent.

She Hugs Her Young Ones to Death

Thomas Brooks, “The Privy Key of Heaven”

“Withhold not correction from the child, for if you beat him with the rod, he shall not die. You shall beat him with the rod, and shall deliver his soul from hell.”  Proverbs 23:13-14 

God uses the rod to prevent further folly, mischief, and misery. It is said of the ape, that she hugs her young ones to death; so many fond parents, by not correcting their children, they come to slay their children. The best way to prevent their being scourged with scorpions in hell, is to chastise them with the rod here.

So God takes up the rod; He afflicts and chastises His dearest children, but it is to prevent soul-mischief and misery; it is to prevent pride, self-love, worldliness, etc.

The rod is to purge out that vanity and folly that is bound up in the heart of the child. Proverbs 22:15, “Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child, but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.” The rod is an ordinance, as well as the word; and such parents who use it as an ordinance—praying and weeping over it—shall find it effectual for the chasing away of evil out of their children’s heart.
