1 Peter 1:17
1. It is not fear that comes from ignorance. It is fear that comes from knowledge.
2. It is not the fear a slave has for a cruel master, but the respect a son has for a beloved father.
3. It is not a fear that leads to carelessness. It is a fear that leads to careful and concrete obedience.
4. It is not a fear that leads to unattractive harshness. It is a fear that leads to beautiful holiness.
5. It is not a fear of condemnation for unforgiven sin. It is a sober consideration of the coming evaluation.
