But I will warn you whom you should fear: fear Him Who, after killing, has power to hurl into hell (Gehenna); yes, I say to you, fear Him! (Luke 12:5 AMP)
The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, so the Bible says. The fear of God shall bring you to submission to Him, His power, and His will. All creatures, especially us men, should fear God. To fear God is to obey Him. It is the whole duty of men, to keep His commands. It should be our ultimate goal in life. Know that He gives reward to those who fear and love Him. He also punishes those who hates, disrespects, and neglects Him. Be reminded that we have only one physical body to lose, one soul to save, and one life to care for. Losing our body and life for the salvation of our souls is wiser than to lose our souls. Our body shall become immortal and our life everlasting if we are wise to serve, love, and worship God. So which one should you choose? Save your life and body and lose your soul? Or save your soul and regain a perfect body and everlasting life?
