Fear again?

Sounds like a good project for you. Please get started.
Just rip out 19 pages and call it a day.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.
This what you're looking for?
Luke: I won't fail you. I'm not afraid. Yoda: You will be. You... will... be. "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself". - FDR "We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light." - Plato "Always do what you are afraid to do." - Emerson "We fear things in proportion to our ignorance of them." - C.N. Bovee "There are very few monsters who warrant the fear we have of them." - Andre Gide "I fear the Greeks, even when they bring gifts." - Virgil "A fearful man is always hearing things." - Sophocles "The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time." - Twain RE: He who is a friend of the world is an enemy of mine?

Actually reading The Bible is one of the leading causes of atheism. That said, just the little concordance in the back of my NIV lists about a column of verses dealing with fear. About two-thirds of them are about fearing god (a good thing apparently) and the other third are about not fearing other things because god is with you. I'm not quite sure what the point of quoting them would be. Perhaps the OP could clarify?
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
“Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”
Master Yoda There is nothing but fear reflected in your sword. When you dodge, you're afraid of getting killed. When you attack, you're afraid of killing someone. Even when you try to protect someone, you're afraid of letting them die. Yes, your sword speaks to me only of absurd fear. What's necessary in a fight isn't fear. Nothing can be born of that. When you dodge, "I won't let them cut me." When you protect someone, "I won't let them die." When you attack, "I will kill them." Kisuke Urahara "How shall I rid myself of fear?" "How can you rid yourself of what you cling to?" "You mean I actually cling to my fears? I cannot agree to that." "Consider what your fear protects you from and you will agree! And you will see your folly." Anthony de Mello He who seeks to save humanity without understanding those who think different of him what it's really trying to save is his own ego. Zidneya
"Jesus said to his disciples: 'Things that cause people to stumble are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come. It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble.'" - Luke 17:1-2
He who loves God cannot endeavour that God should love him in return - Baruch Spinoza

Quote:That said, just the little concordance in the back of my NIV lists about a column of verses dealing with fear. About two-thirds of them are about fearing god (a good thing apparently) and the other third are about not fearing other things because god is with you.That would be helpful, although the implication seems to me to be that being motivated by fear is a bad thing. Personally I disagree with that. Most mornings I'm motivated to go to work more by fear of homelessness than out of ambition or love of the work I do. My family has a roof over their heads either way. |
