Fear of God or Man?

The ungodly person fears man not God.
"An oracle is within my heart concerning the sinfulness of the wicked: There is no fear of God before his eyes." (Psalm 36:1)


The strong Christian fears God not man.
"Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil." (Job 2:3)


The weak Christian fears man too much and God too little.
"Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the whole duty of man." (Ecclesiastes 12:13)


[John Flavel]
