Fear of God

Fear the sun God, he might not shine tomarrow.

Create terror, the fix it.

marketing 101. Create a need and then fill it.

I wonder how much money has this idea bilked out of people?

And furthermore, anyone who boasts about their salvation but fears man is a hypocritical liar, and salvation means nothing to him.

If you don't fear God, then you fear man. One master is much crueler than the other. Without the fear of God, the sacrifice of Jesus is worthless. Awe and reverence are part of the fear of God, but do not complete it. The fear of God has never changed since the beginning, it means to tremble at His word AND give Him reverence and be in awe. Simply put, you have to know the utter danger of your soul and what kind of a sinner you are before salvation means anything.

so in other words we dont have tobe afraid of God,,because Jesus paid the price? These Christians are very funny

No. This is wrong. The idea of a god who knows all and creates you sick and demands you to be well is the definition of control. and yes the established religions are established because they were good at taking the concept to a new level.

Jeremiah 29:13

You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. (NIV)
This is a promise from God to man.

good anti athesitic try :)

If you made an awsome present for a friend and the friend thought it was from someone else would you tell them that it was from you because you made it not this other person. Kind of like giving another god credit for making you rather then the one that really did

You are right, just like the patients thinking the placebo pill helped their symptoms, enjoy your placebo. LOL
