Very helpful teaching. There is a good kind of fearing God and a bad kind. The good kind is an extreme reverence that understands what would happen if we walk away from him. But this kind of fear involves no anxiety. The bad kind is an anxious fear.
Genesis 4:8-16 "8 Cain spoke to Abel his brother. And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother and killed him. 9 Then the Lord said to Cain, " Where is Abel your brother? " He said, " I do not know; am I my brother's keeper? " 10 And the LORD said, " What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the ground. 11 And now you are cursed from the ground, which is opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand. 12 When you work the ground, it shall no longer yield to you it strength. You shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth." 13 Cain said to the LORD, my punishment is greater than I can bear. 14 Behold, you have driven me today away from the ground, and whoever finds me will kill me." 15 Then the LORD said to him, " Not so! If anyone kill Cain, vegeance shall be taken on him sevenfold." And the LORD put a mark on Cain, lest any who found him should attack him. 16 Then cain went away from the presence of the LORD and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden."( Genesis 4:8-16 ESV) Matthew 4:23-25(Jesus (Jesus😊1st❤) Minister to Great crowds) "23 And he( Jesus😊1st❤) went throughout all Galilee, teaching(❤), in the synagogues and proclaiming(❤) the gospel (❤) of the kingdom(❤) and healing(❤) disease and every afflication among the people (❤). 24 So his fame spread throughout all Syria and they brought him all the sick, those afflicted with various diseases and pains, those oppressed by demons, epileptics, and paralytics, and he (Jesus😊1st❤) healed them. 25 And great crowds followed him from Galilee and the Decapolis and from Jersalem and Judea, and from beyond the Jordan."( Matthew 4:23-25 ESV) Dear Abba Father in heaven, after Thanksgiving next week , Christmas is coming soon.

Piper: will you ever raise even one criticism of Biden? Afraid to “compromise your ministry”? Funny, you had no such constraint with Donald Trump. Duplicitous much, Piper?
That is too simplistic. If Christians who owned slaves had typically freed all their slaves, the Christians would have become known for doing this. And we can easily imagine that powerful people with interests in slavery would have reacted strongly for fear that the practice of not owning slaves might catch on. The persecution of Christians would almost certainly have increased. But the Christians were being persecuted enough as it was. And as far as buying slaves is concerned, if Christians didn’t buy them, then pagan owners would have. And life for a slave with a pagan owner would typically have been far worse than for one with a Christian owner. In fact, if Christian owners acted on the principles in Eph. 6:9 and Col. 4:1, their slaves should not have been harshly treated at all.
The difference is that our God is a perfect master. Don’t compare it directly to human slavery. If He let’s someone go (to their own passions), then they are free, but not free from sin. They are a slave to that. You have to choose. I’d much rather be a slave of The Most High, than a slave to anything else. He knows what’s best for me, and I trust Him with my salvation, as well as my life.
Its very important to understand what slavery was in ancient hebrew culture. A slave was not someone you could beat on a whim when they did something wrong. Master were responsible for their servants wellbeing. Much like God is for us, if we are true slaves to his son the Christ. If a slave ran away from a master, the slave was not aggressivley apprehended and brought to their master. In fact if a slave was caught running away he likely had a good reason. But like our relationship with god if we run away we are not forced to come back. This is a perfect master slave relationship, but tainted by sin and mans own desire.
Very helpful teaching. There is a good kind of fearing God and a bad kind.
The good kind is an extreme reverence that understands what would happen if we walk away from him. But this kind of fear involves no anxiety.
The bad kind is an anxious fear.
Amen...Give the glory!
We have Perfect Gratitude for ABBA

Genesis 4:8-16
"8 Cain spoke to Abel his brother. And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother and killed him.
9 Then the Lord said to Cain, " Where is Abel your brother? " He said, " I do not know; am I my brother's keeper? " 10 And the LORD said, " What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the ground.
11 And now you are cursed from the ground, which is opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.
12 When you work the ground, it shall no longer yield to you it strength. You shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth."
13 Cain said to the LORD, my punishment is greater than I can bear.
14 Behold, you have driven me today away from the ground, and whoever finds me will kill me."
15 Then the LORD said to him, " Not so! If anyone kill Cain, vegeance shall be taken on him sevenfold."
And the LORD put a mark on Cain, lest any who found him should attack him.
16 Then cain went away from the presence of the LORD and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden."( Genesis 4:8-16 ESV)

And yet in the Bible it says that god has no given us the spirit of fear. That’s funny, man!
Different definition of fear
One type of fear is doubt and sinful
The other type is reverence and respect
Reverent fear = respect
@@joshuamakinson5949, it means to be afraid of judgement and that supposed to lead people to repent which is not working for me at all. Fear is not a good motivator for me.

Genesis
4:17-25
" 17 Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and born Enoch.
When he built a city, he called the name of the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
18 To Enoch was born Irad, and
Irad fathered Mehujael, and Mehujael fathered Methushael, and Methushael fathered Lamech.
19 And Lamech took two wives. The name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
20 Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.
21 His brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe.
21 Zillah also bore Tubal- cain; he was the forger of all instructments of bronze and iron. The sister of Tubal- cain was Naamah.
23 Lamech said to his wives:
" Adah and Zillah, hear my voice;
you wives of Lamech, listen to what I say:
I have killed a man for wounding me, a young man for striking me.
24 If Cain's revenge is sevenfold, then Lamech's is seventy- sevenfold."
25 And Adam knew( make love) his wife again, she bore a son and called his name Seth, for she said, " God has appointed for me another offerspring instead of Abel, for cain killed him."
26 To Seth also a son was born, and he called his name Enosh. At that time people began to call upon the name of the LORD."( Genesis 4:17-26 ESV)

Piper: will you ever raise even one criticism of Biden? Afraid to “compromise your ministry”? Funny, you had no such constraint with Donald Trump. Duplicitous much, Piper?
Funny, how you can only make up false claims
That is so immoral telling slaves to obey their master instead of saying, set the slaves free, and let God be the master of their life
That is too simplistic.
If Christians who owned slaves had typically freed all their slaves, the Christians would have become known for doing this. And we can easily imagine that powerful people with interests in slavery would have reacted strongly for fear that the practice of not owning slaves might catch on. The persecution of Christians would almost certainly have increased. But the Christians were being persecuted enough as it was.
And as far as buying slaves is concerned, if Christians didn’t buy them, then pagan owners would have. And life for a slave with a pagan owner would typically have been far worse than for one with a Christian owner. In fact, if Christian owners acted on the principles in Eph. 6:9 and Col. 4:1, their slaves should not have been harshly treated at all.
The slave master relationship is a bit challenging.
@@OneMan-wl1wj That's your pathetic defense? It's a bit challenging. We know who the bigot who kept slaves would have been in the 1800s..
The difference is that our God is a perfect master. Don’t compare it directly to human slavery. If He let’s someone go (to their own passions), then they are free, but not free from sin. They are a slave to that.
You have to choose. I’d much rather be a slave of The Most High, than a slave to anything else. He knows what’s best for me, and I trust Him with my salvation, as well as my life.
Its very important to understand what slavery was in ancient hebrew culture. A slave was not someone you could beat on a whim when they did something wrong.
Master were responsible for their servants wellbeing. Much like God is for us, if we are true slaves to his son the Christ. If a slave ran away from a master, the slave was not aggressivley apprehended and brought to their master. In fact if a slave was caught running away he likely had a good reason. But like our relationship with god if we run away we are not forced to come back.
This is a perfect master slave relationship, but tainted by sin and mans own desire.
