Faith and Fear..


Faith & Fear..

We know faith comes by hearing the Word of God(Rom 10:17),without which it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God(Heb 11:6).Fear is the opposite of faith,because it takes what the Word of God says out of context.So we know fear reigns where the Word is not known. 
Faith for change "naturally" and spiritually comes when the Word is made known or revealed,through:
1- Preachers,etc and/or
2- Personal studies.
Faith that comes only through preachers without the personal studies(2) could, if not regularly checked,bring fear.You can't afford not to regularly do the two to avoid errors and false teachings.Both 1 & 2 are inter-dependent.
After receiving the Word from your pastors in church and on TV,please find time to search the scriptures for proofs/answers.Don't just trust anyone or message.
As for the people of Berea:

"These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so."Acts 17:11.

Please find time to observe the Sabbath- a Holyday of rest unto God..Lev 23:3 for "catching up" on faith.Work it into your tight schedule.Any day in the week that fit's and the rest is up to God.
Your chosen day of Sabbath will be a big time fear killer(=>Faith builder!) for you.
