Is your faith in God based on true faith or fear?

( to Ben Stein ) I do not believe out of fear but faith so now you know.

    Faith

  • I'm not religious or spiritual, but christianity is a slave religion, I dont mean that its followers are slaves, I mean that it was made by slaves of the Roman empire.

    These people didnt have any power so in the "Will to Power" theory, they saw this as the only way to gain power over masters through the damnation of souls and the deliverance.

    So its both, it started as a combination of fear and faith, and faith is really just a belief, it doesnt make it true or false.

    Fear is the beginning of wisdom

    Faith developes from there.

    I now believe based on True Faith that God is real, he provided the means by which our relationship can be made new, and that he is in control and everything will happen as he has said it will.

    It is said that there are 3 level of faith.

    1. Because you fear going to Hell.

    2. Because you want to enter Paradise.

    3. Because of Love.

    Neither is wrong. All 3 are accepted. But it reflects the level of your faith.

    True Faith....For HE has not given his believers the spirit of fear, but of love, power and a sound mind.

  • True faith....I do not fear my God at all

    True faith, but you should also fear him, because he is your God (whether you believe in him or not).
