This is a question that was recently asked to me. My response was, “why would I be scared of him?”
Come to find out this person was in complete fear that Jesus was out to get him. The Bible does teach us to “fear”, which to me means “reverence” God. That is “religion” coming through when people are scared of Jesus. Jesus is my best friend. Jesus left Heaven to come to earth to suffer and die for me. With that said, why would I be scared of someone that did that for me.
The problem is we look at Jesus through “religious” eyes. My challenge today is for you to get to know Jesus on a personal level. He wants to be your savior and friend.
