Zac Poonen - The Fear of the Lord is the ABC of Spiritual Wisdom
Zac Poonen · Nov 25, 2024
The fear of the Lord is the foundational foundation of Christian wisdom and spiritual maturity, comparable to learning the alphabet before advancing to higher learning. Speaker Zac Poonen contrasts the apostles, who learned reverence for God for 30 years before encountering grace, with modern Christians who hear only about grace and forgiveness from childhood, resulting in a shallow faith that lacks power and victory over sin. True forgiveness from God is meant to deepen our fear and reverence of Him, not to enable casual disobedience.
