Great snippets on the fear of God. (26 min)

Magenta....You conflated JOSHUA into a context not given.....BOTH are valid, both are to be taught, both are applicable and it is erroneous to say what you said....come on, you know better than that.......

One can reverence the LORD in fear and still serve out of love.........

BOTH fear and love are valid

I did no such thing. Why are you so accusatory? Am I not allowed to ever speak in my own terms?

Choose you this day whom you shall serve is a DIRECT quote from JOSHUA....so please excuse me for THINKING of that VERSE and I am sorry......

BOTH are valid TRUTHS and WE are to HAVE BALANCE and preach the WHOLE COUNCIL OF GOD <---a DIRECT QUOTE.....it is not a matter of WHOM WE SERVE.....LOVE and FEAR are not a WHOM, but RATHER VALID POINTS from the word of GOD

I did not say they were whoms, you read that in.. I said WHICH. Plus, I do not see you preaching the law. Obviously we speak of what we understand Scriptures to mean as a whole. We are told that fear is the beginning of wisdom, and that perfect love casts out fear. And there are different meanings to the word also. So lay down your attitude and stop pretending you preach the whole counsel, because you do not.

The Bible mentions two specific types of fear. The first type is beneficial and is to be encouraged. The second type is a detriment and is to be overcome. The first type of fear is fear of the Lord. This type of fear does not necessarily mean to be afraid of something. Rather, it is a reverential awe of God, a reverence for His power and glory. However, it is also a proper respect for His wrath and anger. In other words, the fear of the Lord is a total acknowledgement of all that God is, which comes through knowing Him and His attributes.

Tell me, since I keep seeing a particular verse given: are believers to fear having both body and soul destroyed in hell by God?

Not sure how this got off on the wrong foot except maybe you mistook my post #6 where I was actually agreeing with you and adding my 2¢.
I realize there are different forms of fear and I nor the Scriptures were referring to the cringing type of fear or the kind Adam and Eve had after they sinned and went hiding from God in fear.
In my last post I was simply pointing out the fact that most of your verses that said 'fear not', were referring to circumstances, things, people etc., but the Scriptures never say 'Fear not', when referring to God, but rather the opposite.

As far as your question goes, (born again) believers have passed from Judgment into life, but we ought to fear God in the sense that we don"t offend him through sinning by neglect of His Word, avoidance in worship and prayer, lack of love towards Him, grieving His Spirit, hardening our hearts etc.

and got raked over the coals.....

zounds like some are not practicing what they preach, or want you to fear them instead of God.

Fear and do not fear are both given. Choose this day which you will serve, love or fear. Because perfect love casts out fear. Do you fear being condemned by God and tossed into the burning lake of fire? No, you do not. And in fact, you would not tell other believers to fear that either.

I agree with what youre saying. Its great that you are in our Fathers love. Thats amazing..

To give a response the bible is prophetic and Living. To those who have the Spirit of God it is life and health, sweeter than honey. But to those who are unbelievers it is condemnation and God is one to be feared. For His children He is love and we do not need fear. If we step outside of His love and His covering we will be corrected as a Father corrects His child.
