Fear Of God

"The Scriptures place much of religion in godly fear; insomuch that an experience of it is often spoken of as the character of those who are truly religious persons. They tremble at God;s work, they fear before him, their flesh trembles because of him, they are afraid of his judgments, his excellency makes them afraid, and his dread falls upon them."

Jonathan Edwards, When The Spirit Comes With Power, p. 87
