The Fear of God, part 2

This message from Isaiah 40:12-31 by Pastor Rod Harris was delivered at Trinity Baptist Church on Wednesday evening, October 21, 2020.

“There is no fear of God before their eyes.” That was Paul’s conclusion regarding those who were “outside of Christ.” It is equally appropriate today. In fact it is increasingly true among those “inside the church!” God has definitely been made “user friendly.” He has been made safe. We need not fear the Almighty. But is that true? Is that a safe position?

I would argue it is an extremely dangerous position. In fact I am becoming convinced that until you learn to fear God – you cannot trust God. You can only trust Him to the extent you have learn to fear Him. I think there is biblical precedent for such a belief.
