When I look at the dictionary, I see that there are words in the English language that have two opposite meanings!
Is it possible that in Hebrew or Latin, which are the sources of Christianity in these languages, there is a word that both means (fear) and supposedly means (love)?
Because the God that we should be afraid of, definitely has satanic qualities, and an alive that is full of goodness and blessings will not be afraid for us.
Partly that's a translation problem.
Generally, when the original Hebrew or Greek says we should "fear" God, in modern English it's better to say we should "be in awe of" God.
