Such is the shallow state of Christianity that it is not unusual to hear a professing Christian saying something like, “We mustn’t fear God! We must love Him! Fearing God is the Old Testament God. The New Testament God is a God of love.” But humans were made to experience this feeling of great awe. I believe the Bible teaches us that this emotion finds its ultimate fulfilment in knowing God.
