Blessed are those that fear the Lord. God's truth says, 'The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom.' But it is exactly at this point where Satan began his lies. His first lie to Eve '...thou shalt not surely die...' demonstrated how this master deceiver even at the beginning knew that if he were able to remove the fear of God before their eyes, sin would be the result. At the basis of his deceit lies this fundamental principle. Concerning the fallen mass of humanity, he knows as the scripture says, 'There is no fear of God before their eyes.' And thus he labors to keep them in this condition.
My dear friend, has the Evil one deceived you? Do you suppose that you can begin a true Christian course without first having the fear of God? Have you seen your wretched, sinful, doleful and helpless condition? Have you felt the wrath of Almighty God hovering over your soul, with the Divine sword of justice ready to strike you down into hell where you belong?
Until you wake up to your miserable condition and that you have spent your life asleep in Satan's lap, in service to God's enemies, you will never be sensible to flee to refuge for salvation in Jesus Christ. Flee I say! Flee from the wrath to come. For He says, 'Him that cometh unto me, I will in no wise cast out.'
