Jeremy Utley - Growing in the Fear of the Lord
Speaker: Jeremy Utley Title: Growing in the Fear of the Lord (at Austin CFC) Date: Feb 2020 Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29) We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3) We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)
Summary
The central message is the necessity of growing in the fear of the Lord, which is presented as the beginning of wisdom and the fountain of life. The speaker emphasizes that this fear is not merely a feeling but a deep awareness of God's presence, which is crucial for living in the new covenant. He suggests that signs of growth include adopting childlike humility and maintaining a constant awareness of the Lord's presence, much like a dove leaving a place of quarreling.
