God does not celebrate any ornament of defilement. God is a God of principles. He is a spirit and those who worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth (John 4:24). In God’s kingdom, the end does not justify the means. God is interested in the process that leads to the end. The world is upside down because of this.

That is one of the ways to identify sons. Those who are not prepared to take the chastisement of the Father are not qualified to be sons. This is very common today. A lot of people who go to Church today want to be entertained; they have reduced the Church to a place of entertainment and not a place of transformation, not a place where you are corrected so that you don’t miss it.
