FEAR OF GOD
“Those who fear the Lord do not disobey his words, and those who love him keep his ways. Those who fear the Lord seek to please him, and those who love him are filled with his law. Those who fear the Lord prepare their hearts, and humble themselves before him. Let us fall into the hands of the Lord, but not into the hands of mortals; for equal to his majesty is his mercy, and equal to his name are his works.”
The Book of Sirach 2:15-18
This is the right kind of fear: “Fall into the hands of the Lord, but not into the hands of mortals; for equal to his majesty is his mercy…”
“If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.” Jesus
