RE: The fear of the Lord

in #steemchurch6 years ago

This is a great message. Let there be in you this feeling that was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not esteem being equal to God as a thing to cling to, but he emptied himself, taking the form of a servant , made similar to men; and being in the condition of a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, and death on a cross. Wherefore God also exalted him to the utmost, and gave him a name that is above every name, that in the name of Jesus every knee should bow down to those who are in heaven, and on earth, and under the Earth; and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is the Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Let the same mind be in us, says the Scripture, which was in the Lord Jesus Christ. What was that mind? It was the mind of obedience, even death. It was the mind of "not my will, but yours. If we love God we will not be afraid of Him because love and hate do not go together. At the same time I repeat that this does not mean that it is right to approach God in the same way as to approach peers, with perhaps some simple respect and without realizing the Height of the One they are approaching. thanks for sharing
