The Fear of the Lord

The fear of the Lord is wisdom. To perfect wisdom: continue to fear the LORD. In God's wisdom, He proclaims this is the wisest thing for us to do: fear Him. Ruminate, you clean ones, on the fear of the LORD. He is, was, and is yet to come. When He comes, He will render to each one according to his works, and He judges impartially. The Word of the LORD is life. He is True. All who believe in Him set their seal to this: God is true. Let every man be a liar. The one who does not believe, does not fear; the one who believes, fears the Lord. The one who is perfected in love has no reason to fear, for fear has to do with punishment.
