Fear of god is never a good thing in my opinion. But i'm not a christian though.
I think fear is always limiting and it's nonsense to think he'd have created us without "trusting" us, so objectively, nothing has to fear god.
I really think fear of god is a distortion of churches and institutions willing to impose fear in order for people to comply to their demands and values/morality.
Christian God is supposedly omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent, and the source of good "morality". So there's just no way, he'd create people with the fate of fearing him. It's contradiction.
