The Fear of God

Summary: Understand why the greatest power in the universe loves you.
Review: John Bunyan's book, 'The Fear of God' is an excellent study of the holiness of God and why man, even saved men, should fear him. The author, grounded in biblical truths, illustrates to the reader just how holy, powerful and awesome God is. He also shows us just how insignificant we are in comparison to God. Then, after the author has striped us of all our false pride he shows us how God sees us. From here he once again lays out the plan of salvation and why God has chosen this manner of redemption for humanity.

After reading this book you will grow to fear God not as a inconceivable power that will consume you, but as a loving father. Any loving child fear's their father. They fear the look of regret and disappointment they see in their father's eye when they disappoint. This is the fear that John Bunyan's book brings to light in such a marvelous and inspiring way.

An excellent book for anyone wrestling with the concepts of an all powerful yet forgiving God. A must read for every growing Christian in today's world.
