what does it means to be a God fearing christian?

domonkassyu SG

advanceparty does seems like s/he is courting peoples' wrath here..but however, do and think on the questions he asked..does it not bothers our daily lives as we try to cope between striving to do God's word in this wicked system and also to survive in here till armageddon.TS do have valid points that with satifying answers,will benefit all,be it an experienced christian or a new comer.

maybe when TS has started a thread, we can give in comments and give more insight in his comments but also take caution not to feed trolls.

it's not just mere bible verses. It's promising of life and contains encouragement. OR should I just say it's God's Word. :)

are you sure that they are really God's words, or are they written by some lunatic who claimed to have divine interaction with Him?

Imo God fearing person would ultimately fear to do sins especially the bigger sins or those which hurt or are detrimental to other people.

But also imo you cannot fear something that you don't know or have no knowldege of.

Let alone loving it. But loving God is so muuuch better than fearing God. Try to love God if you can but you could try by first fearing God. But in order to fear God you must know God. Hence read the bible as your starting point. Be faithful and if you are faithful sooner or later you would know God not just from the bible.

PS I don't think anyone can love God unless that love is given to him from God.

I can give you my personal reasons why everyone should fear God if you want them I could PM them to you ;-)

As the others have said, the fear of God in all His Glory is essential to us realizing His Sovereignty. Once we have moved on from then, we grow in faith, and through faith, we have hope and through hope, we are able to receive His Divine Love and we are able to return it.

Old testament - fear - sovereignty

New testament - love - salvation
