I would say it this way: "I love you and if you love me, you need to obey." Your point is well taken, but I think your recommedation can be enhanced to provide greater impact.

I would say it this way:
"I love you and if you love me, you need to obey."

However, I do believe the author's article contained many inferences to grace in the model of discipline he was promoting. I feel that you totally misrepresented the article. Your comment makeit sound as though he was giving instructions on the best way to beat your kids without leaving bruises. Grace is the flip-side of wrath. God's wrath is reserved for those who reject Him. Just as He would never direct His wrath toward any of His children, parents discipline should never involve wrath as part of the motivation. Please reread the article with a bit of grace and see if you don't agree.
