5. Yahweh is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with
justice and righteousness.

6. And there shall be stability in thy times, abundance of salvation, wisdom,

and knowledge: the fear of Yahweh is thy treasure. (Isaiah 33:5-6)

The fear of Yahweh is like a treasure for a man, but does today's believers have this?

1Jo 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
17 ¶ Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
19 We love him, because he first loved us.

Do you say, that you love has come perfect, and it has cast away the fear of God?

Have you ever fear God?

It has predicted, that the man of the last day's will be proud and arrogant, and why?

I believe that because they do not have fear for God, causing that they can do what they wan to to do, and claim that is good, even if it not.

Do not deceive your selves.

I believe that this part mean's that if we fear the day of judgement, then our love is not complete.

But it does not mean, that love cast away the fear, reverence and obedience for God.

I do not dear to stand again's God, do you?

To me fear of the Lord means acknowledging Him as my Lord whom I should obey. This fear leads to healthy relationship with God, like posted earlier 1Jo 4:18

"stand against God" ... no it means God is on my side.

Ro 8:31 ¶ What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
