The Fear of God

Fearing the Lord thy God!
The Reference is actually overwhelming throughout the entire scripture!
Leave it to the devil to twist, dismiss, shove it under the carpet, and ignore it!

You have just one thing to fear, that is God himself and the power he wields in his hands. FEAR, of anything else is HISTORY!!! Including DEATH!

I boldly testify it wasn’t me studying the bible that brought me into the presence of God. It WAS HIM! Directly! The bible made absolutely zero sense to me. Until I Broke down and Surrendered myself to God… if he was actually real, as I didn’t really know.

It WAS the very idea of eternity in hell because of the things I was relentlessly indulging in that I could not stop that scared the living hell out of me!

It was the FEAR of God that actually allowed the Living God to manifest in me and bring me so close to him that I’ll NEVER let go! So Close to him that I actually Understand HIM and WHY we exist and what our purpose in Life is and that HIS WILL will be done!

So, Christianity, you can just take your Stay Puft marshmallow man that would never hurt a fly FALSE GOD and walk with him, right into the lake of fire! You just think you understand scripture, a self understanding that makes you comfortable in a world ruled by the devil!

It is the DEVIL who DOES NOT Want us to FEAR our maker. Because THAT Is what Actually DRIVES HIM OUT!

Love, love, love, Kindness, tolerance, and forgiveness—let’s all just get along. IGNORING God’s Righteous Judgment against those who relentlessly indulge in what God hates! Those who DENY the Power of God to transform sinners into saints by his MANIFESTATION Within! Those who are blatantly IGNORING God’s written word and Wrath being poured out on earth RIGHT NOW! Those who are Denying you can’t be resurrected into eternal Life without DYING FIRST! Those who are actually following a FALSE God are about to be in for the SHOCK of their LIFE!

When God speaks to you internally AND Externally…

YOU BETTER BE LISTENING!!!!
