“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole
matter: fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man”
- Ecclesiastes 12:13
The summary of man’s duty is:
- Fear God
- Keep His Commandment
We are going to establish in simple
terms what this really means. Remember the bible says in John 14:15- If you
love me, keep my commandments. So we can accept that keeping God’s commandment
is relative to loving him.
So the conclusion of the whole matter
is: fear God and Love him. FEAR|LOVE.
These are two sides of a coin. They
are inseparable. You cannot fear God and not love him; also you cannot love God
and not fear him. They go hands in hands.
Fear in this context refers to
reverence and respect. In as much as we say we love God, our love is not
complete until we do his commandments and fear him.
Let us not slack in our duty as we
continue in our race.
God bless you!
