Dr. Bushnell's Life Hebrews 12:11 Now no chastening for the present seems to be joyous, but grievous… Dr. Bushnell lost a son. When, a year or two after, he went into the country to preach for an old friend, the latter noticed an increased fervour in his preaching, and, in intimate talk, perhaps, alluded to it, when he said, earnestly, "I have learned more of experimental religion since my little boy died than in all my life before." (Dr. Bushnell's Life.) Parallel Verses KJV: Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. |
