The Lord says to His people, "You love to wander far from Me and do not follow in My paths.

Now....I will no longer accept you as My people.

I will remember all your wickedness and will punish (not condemn) you for your sins." (Jeremiah 14:10)

The LORD disciplines those He loves, and He punishes each one He accepts as His child.” (Hebrews 12:6)

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. (Hebrews 13:8)

The LORD your God is more powerful than all other gods and lords, and His tremendous power is to be feared. His decisions are always fair, and you cannot bribe Him to change His mind. (Deuteronomy 10:17)
