Faith or Fear?
Do you fear the by wrath of a father’s hand?
Luke 5:8-
Do you fear being scolded by wrath of a father’s hand?
Are you afraid of what other’s think?
Are you afraid that you won’t measure up?
Do you fear the judgement of a parent?
Do you fear being the odd one out or not fitting in?
Do you fear being the odd one out or not fitting in?
Are you
Whom do you fear and why?
Luke 5:8-10
THis is a tea
Luke
The only thing we have to fear is the ‘culture of fear’ itself.
NEW ESSAY: How human thought and action are being stifled by a regime of uncertainty” by Frank Furedi
NEW ESSAY: How human thought and action are being stifled by a regime of uncertainty.Frank Furedi Fear plays a key role in twenty-first century consciousness.
Increasingly, we seem to engage with various issues through a narrative of fear.
You could see this trend emerging and taking hold in the last century, which was frequently described as an ‘Age of Anxiety’ (1).
But in recent decades, it has become more and better defined, as specific fears have been cultivated.

You could see this trend emerging and taking hold in the last century, which was frequently described as an ‘Age of Anxiety’ (1).
But in recent decades, it has become more and better defined, as specific fears have been cultivated.
Frank Furedi argued that fear has become a powerful force that dominates the public imagination, and that politics has become a contest of doom-mongering.
Church Security
Intelligence has recently uncovered a new wave of church terrorism that has rapidly affected the Body of Christ.
Intelligence has uncovered the names of the leaders behind this wave: Bin Gossiping, Bin Critical, Bin Absent, and Bin Sour.
The fear is, that these leaders have well developed cell organizations in many churches across the nation.
Intelligence also fears that there is ever more brothers in this wicked family just waiting for orders to invade.
Since our first report, we have been notified by a number of Church’s Board that they have identified four additional suspected terrorists working in different churches.
Three of the four have been apprehended.
Bin Sleepin, Bin Loafin, and Bin Lazy have been taken into custody.
I would like to advice you that it is very difficult to find anyone fitting the description of the fourth cell member, Bin Workin, in most churches.
However, I am confident that anyone who looks like he’s Bin Workin will be very easy to spot.
Seriously, faith or fear is rooted in knowledge or understanding.
What you know about someone can and will determine what you believe about that person.
Fa
Back to the wrath of a father’s hand; you fear that person because of what you know about them, how you understand them to act or react.
You believe if you do wrong your parent will hurt you for doing so.
The issue or question that arises is are we disciplined in love or in anger.
I always had to be careful to not discipline my children in anger because that is not love.
Disciplining or hurting someone, you all know that discipline hurts, in anger is to tear down or put under subjection.
To discipline in love is to restore, build up and empower one to learn and grow.
Let me talk for a moment about faith.
We all have faith in something or someone based on what we know and have learned about the thing or person.
Can we count on someone, are they a person of their word.
Simply put do they do what they say, does there actions speak louder than there words.
What is you faith in?
not matter how old you are you may still look to a parent?
In whom do you have faith?
What is the object of you faith?
Do you have faith in the government?
Do you have faith in the company you work for?
Do you have faith in your teacher?
Do you have faith in your parents: not matter how old you are you may still look to a parent?
“And do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so? “ - American Pie by Don McLean
Who is it that you have faith in?
Is it yourself or is it something that has proven themselves to be faithful.
Proven as in you know that He is faithful.
Now let us look at the text again and see how the simple question of faith or fear can be answered.
Now let us look at the text again and see how the simple question of faith or fear can be answered.
In today’s text we see what can be taught from it.
Understanding:
it can produce the following
It can produce two products
Humility
Faith
Fear
Faith
Humility leads to:
Repentance which produces faith and action
Do nothing from aselfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves;
Which produces faith and action
Paralysis - dear in the headlights
Faith should only produce two products:
Faith should only produce two products:
Action - Fight or Flight
Faith should only produce two products:
Faith should only produce two products:
Understanding that leads to greater faith
Action that leads to service
Fear itself can produce several actions:
Paralysis - unable to move
Action - fight or flight
Humility - recognizing the God in whom you have faith and whom you serve
You are
This leads me to a final matter to note:
You must truly know your God so you can have a true faith and a healthy fear.
Who God the Father is based on what His word tells us.
But unfortunately one’s faith does not only produce greater faith that leads to action
1.
His patience and kindness never runs out.
You don’t have to worry about overextending your Heavenly Father.
says, “from everlasting to everlasting the Lord’s love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children’s children.”
And says, “for he is good; his love endures forever.”
That means not only that God’s patience and kindness never wear out, but that God’s ability to forgive you never wanes either.
assures us, “As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.”
That means your Heavenly Father also never holds a grudge or brings up your past.
2.
He is always approachable.
