God created all evil and good, and is responsible for literally everything that has ever existed, happened, or ever will or could. All that happens, including our fear - is gods doing.
It goes hand in hand with omnipotence and omniscience. To deny it is to deny that god is all powerful, which is peak blasphemy last I checked.
He made satan, the accuser, and allows him to do what he does. Read job again.
The bible contains truth mixed with many lies/falsehoods. They must be tried as a blacksmith tries gold - by fire.
All that said, we are made to choose - and we best choose love and a sound mind/heart. Also, children do not (typically) know fear, and this supports this passage. It's something we learn and inherit later. To assume that it too does not come from god, is blasphemy.
Revelation 22:19
“And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.”
1 Peter 1:25
but the word of the Lord endures forever.” And this is the word that was preached to you.
Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
Are you SURE that you are willing to bet your life and eternity on that? I would weigh that one carefully my friend.
Acts 2:17
“’In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.
Joel 2:28
“And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions.
Deuteronomy 4:2
2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.
Revelation 22:18,19
18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
Are you SURE that you are willing to bet your life and eternity on that?
Yes. I know pascals wager well. Of course, that is extra biblical fren...
God is real. He doesn't write or publish books.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.
Then perhaps I am a prophet. I certainly fit the archetype. However, only fools believe that these are the last days. It comes as a thief in the night, and I tire of those who can't even bother to read their own holy books.
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you
Right, like the clergy did with revelation! That was my whole point!
God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
Books are written by sinners. The bible is full or truth and many lies/falsehoods as a direct result. My god is merciful, because I am merciful. You hope/pray for vengeance, and god doesn't like that.
Amen!
One of my favorites… so need this. Thank you. Amen
Amen
Blasphemy.
God created all. Fear, bravery, hatred, and love.

Revelation is garbage, written by the clergy AFTER the age of prophecy was over.
God requires no words. His gospel is written upon our hearts. The books are filled with the words of flawed sinners, mere men.
Agreed.
