This sermon is absolutely incredible! Today, I read Proverbs 1 and encountered some thought-provoking study questions regarding the concept of "fearing the Lord." While I have often heard this phrase during my upbringing, I used to believe it meant being afraid of God in the same way we fear other people in today's society. As a new believer, I found myself uncertain about how to answer these study questions, prompting me to search on KZread for an explanation of what it truly means to fear God. Thankfully, I came across this video, and I'm grateful that I did. The analogy of the Rottweiler resonated with me and helped me grasp the concept. The illustration of the non-believer narrowly escaping death had a profound impact on me. When Pastor JP's friend advised the non-believer to "just don't die in the meantime...think about it, just don't die," everything clicked for me. Correct me if I'm wrong, but now when I contemplate the fear of God, I liken it to our Temple, our physical body. We often neglect and mistreat our bodies by consuming unhealthy things until we become sick. Only then do we turn to God and ask for healing, but if we had followed the wisdom God provided about treating our bodies as sacred, we might have avoided getting sick altogether.

God kills in the Old Testament, because sin overpowers people, and they cannot “not” break the Laws, and most of them, did not have protection of the forgiveness and being robed in Christ’s righteousness, where His wrath is not applied to the saved. Christ is about giving life. God allows death to come to you, if He desires you to be done on earth. We are saved by His Grace, alone, through faith, alone, in Christ alone, FOR HIS GLORY, ALONE. Paul said “Rejoice”. “Again I say, Rejoice”. (For gratitude’s sake.)

“Godly sorrow”, is being sorrowful about disappointing or letting our God down, in the New Testament, according to Paul.

You are a man, and we are missing a “complete” presentation, because the woman’s view has been dominating the view. We need both, and to understand God’s All and Thorough Complete Sovereignty. Fear of God might be recognized better if, instead of looking from the beach toward the sea, you are out in a squall miles from shore, in a dingy, by yourself….that would be a better understanding “fearful” view of God.
