Remember your fate. Say to yourself: “Alas, soon will come death.”

Saint Theophan the Recluse

 Lesson 4: Fear of God

In this lesson we will touch on the meaning of fear of a loving God. It is something quite different than being afraid of God. God has been very clear through the ages about what His expectations are for us. He has also been clear of the consequences of not heeding His word. He expects us to do what He has taught us. Knowing how difficult this is, He is every ready to embrace us out of His love through repentance.
