God-fearing people, once they're saved from their sins, they don't mind talking about it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The Spirit of the Lord is with them that fear him.
I began to realize that when people experience the love of God, it casts out their fear and frees them from guilt.
People are usually afraid to say what's on their mind.
People seldom do what they believe in. They do what is convenient, then repent.
Those of us who were brought up as Christians and have lost our faith have retained the sense of sin without the saving belief in redemption. This poisons our thought and so paralyses us in action.
Religion is a reassurance - in fact, that's its only purpose.
The first step in a person's salvation is knowledge of their sin.
Some people feel guilty about their anxieties and regard them as a defect of faith but they are afflictions, not sins. Like all afflictions, they are, if we can so take them, our share in the passion of Christ.
9/11 revealed that those about to die do not seem afraid or plead for forgiveness for their sins, if they think about them at all. They all have one thing in mind - those they love - and they all do the same thing: They call them up - spouses, family or friends - to tell them they love them.
Those who love to be feared fear to be loved.
