The Fear Of The Lord Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 12, 2022

Fear doesn’t mean cowering in the corner like God is some North Vietnamese dictator and you are a prisoner of war. Fearing the Lord means taking God seriously and not casually.

Too many people take God casually. Too few people take God seriously in our day. Too many people’s passion for Christ is like the helium balloons from my son’s graduation party. A few balloons had slipped up to the second floor of our home, some twenty feet up in the air. If you wonder how they ...read more

Carefully Taught

Contributed by Tammy Garrison on Nov 11, 2001

The Lord went to a lot of effort to write us a love letter. We call it the Bible. We would be amiss not to read it.

Letters are interesting and amazing things. They have been the main form of communication between two people or groups of people who are some distance apart, longer than any other form of communication. With the invention of the telephone, there was some threat that written correspondence may ...read more
