Fear is Punishment!

Punishment for Self Love and lack of Trust

in God's Providence and Power,

in His Mercy and Forgiveness!

Repent and Live Fearlessly!

1 John 4:16-18 (RSV)

"So we know and believe the love God has for us.

God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God,

and God abides in him.

In this is love perfected with us,

that we may have confidence for the day of judgment,

because as he is so are we in this world.

There is no fear in love,

but perfect love casts out fear.

For fear has to do with punishment,

and he who fears is not perfected in love."
