"I will tell you whom to fear. FEAR GOD, who has the power to kill you and then throw you into hell. Yes God is the one to fear!"
Why is it that so many people can not accept the fact that they should FEAR GOD? They think that if God is a good God, why should we fear Him. They are the same people who do not fear any authority. They do not fear their parents, teachers, or those in authority over them. They show disrespect for any authority and they are proud of it. They have failed to learn even the beginning of wisdom and show incredible ignorance. Believer's know from the Word of God that the beginning of wisdom, is the fear of God. Before anyone can or should be considered wise or knowledgeable they must first learn to be respectful of God. Who is it that has the power over life and death? Who is the only one to offer eternal life? Who has the power to condemn you to Hell and that eternally. Not fearing God has deadly consequences!
What are you afraid of? Do you fear your neighbors, thieves, murderers or your government? Do you fear flying, driving on freeways, or traveling to new places? Do you fear bugs or other creatures that you may come in contact with? Do you fear heights or being alone? Many people are so afraid of dying, that they fail to live. Some fears are rational and meant to keep us away from harm and other fears are irrational and merely indicate our ignorance. The One Truth Today is that you can take all the other fears that you may have and place them up against the only true fear that matters. God says; "I will tell you whom to fear. FEAR GOD!
We do not have to be afraid of anyone or anything that wants to kill our earthly body. After killing your body they can have no further power over you. What more can any earthly power do after they have taken your life? The important question is who has the power over you after death? Your soul is eternal and it will be judged and then you will be saved or condemned. Who has the power to judge you? Who has the power to Save you? Who has the power to give you eternal life or damnation forever? If you understand the questions above and know the answers then you know whom to fear! We do not need to fear men, but we do have to FEAR GOD! Death where is thy sting? Grave where is thy victory?
