Fear the Lord
The beginning of Wisdom and Knowledge is the Fear of
the Lord. Even Jesus said fear the One that has the power to destroy your soul
in Hell:
The fear of the Lord
is the beginning of wisdom: and
the knowledge of the holy is
understanding.
Prov 9:10 (KJV)
The fear of the Lord
is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and
instruction.
Prov 1:7
(KJV)
The fear of the Lord
is the beginning of wisdom: a
good understanding have all they that do his
commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
Psalms
111:10 (KJV)
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.
Matt 10:28
(KJV)
The fear of the Lord is more than respect
or reverence—it is fear, yet is not a servile (wicked, perverted fear).
Perverted fear seeks to control you, healthy fear protects you. The fear of the
Lord is a healthy fear, much like it a healthy fear of not getting your clothes
to close to a campfire. The fear of God is not filthy. However, the fears Satan
bombards us with are.
The fear of the Lord
is clean, enduring for ever:
the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. Psalms 19:9 (KJV)
Do you fear
the Lord?
If you do
not you cannot have true wisdom, knowledge or understanding is what the Bible
says.
