The more we grow in our fear of God, the more we see our need for fear of god. Having been a Christian by God’s grace for more than thirty-eight years, I can say with conviction that there is no problem in Christian living that isn’t related to the fear of God. Every last defect in my character would be addressed by deeper fear of God, Biblically defined. Every failing or weakness I’ve met in fellow humans can be traced to defective fear of God. every bit og growth in Christ-centered graces relates to growth in the fear of God.
