RE>>but you post only one side of Biblical teaching<< I think I am the only one here that IS posting both sides. I think it is the rest of you who are trying to sell Jesus by hiding both sides of Him... I preach that GOD LOVES.. I just don't preach that he loves Hitler or satan or the wicked... That is what the Bible teaches but people just want to hear about an impotent gOD that is powerless to do anything but love no matter how wicked... Where is that gOD ?? ============ FEAR ============ Fear is not WRONG. Have you not read in scripture that FEAR is quite often what motivates men to Salvation ?? Look TD.. Romans 3:18 There is no fear of God before their eyes. This verse teaches that the problem with the WICKED is that they have no fear ! If what I am saying cause some kind of fear within you then GOOD GOOD GOOD You give me reason to hope ! Look: Romans 11:20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: Paul warns us not to get too sure of ourselves... God is to be feared althoug Jesus has called us friends we must still realize He is GOD ! The one who will punish the wicked for ever and ever and ever and ever. ===== I FEAR but I also LOVE GOD ===== One will now say to me but what about this... ( sometime I have to help you guys ) 2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. That is talking about the fear of death and the devil.. we are not bound by men because we need to save our lives.. They can kill us we will not fear as it is written: Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Who is it that is able to kill the soul... God only. We are to fear God not men ! Fear is one of God's tools in our Salvation.. If you got saved with no fear of God I would have a hard time believing you are saved yet.. you may be on the road but will you say you are like the wicked and have no fear at all? Look: Acts 2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. 42 ¶ And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; This is what scripture says about the biggest act of Salvation the world has ever seen 3000 souls in a single day... FEAR was a big big PART of IT ! What did Peter Preach.... can you tell me....
