They say that everyone is a child of God, those who are saved and those who are not saved. But that is not so. Iknow the Bible say that if God doesn't chasten you, you're none of his,that you are a bastard. We are all God's creations but we are NOT all God's children.

Chastisement was not a part of my salvation experience, but God does chastise those whom he loves.

We are all children of God in that He is our Creator. You will never look into the eyes of someone God doesn't love.
Even Jesus loved the sinners while speaking against their sin.
Doesn't have anything at all to do with chastisement.

Yeah, what about being thoughtless and stubbornness do you see in unchaste people's customary behavior. I see a lot of stuff I don't judge people for. But I still have feelings... I'm the special snowflake, but it's only because I live with autism.
