That is true! In fact the Father Himself modeled that for us with Israel. He treated 'him' like a father does a son. He loved, disciplined, nurtured, instructed and was looooooooongsuffering with 'him'. And even when Israel rejected the Messiah, and left the door open for 'his' return:

Rom 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved...
