The OP question

Why do I see so many women trying to find "God fearing men?" If God is supposed to be a God of love then why be scared of him (her, it)? Is God going to spank me for being naughty? I thought Jesus's crucifixion was supposed to fix that for us? Did I miss something in Sunday school? Seriously ladies... Do you need a man who is scared of God so you can make him scared of you as well?



my simpler answer, the God fearing type I refer to will understand exactly in what context I speak,,,those who dont would just obviously not be who I am looking for

In all seriousness, it is so that when you abuse them or do something they think is "wrong" they can say: "God will get you for that."

Bwahahahaha.

a man or women that fears god, will not hear the voice's of humankind, voices of reason from it's own fellow mankind, and when it hear's OUCH, it say no way that didn't hurt, now time out for you on the couch...

2012...

no more fear of god in town, just hearing of human voices of life once ignored all around, self's own voice it's own superior last word in cap and gown, no voice but it's own twas ever really heard, ears wide open now erase self's own blurb, more than self already knew, the bird the brain set free it flew, religion's tumbling down, down low to the ground, ears of all hear new sound, low low low, low as it can go, brains now wide open climb high, high high high, as high as it go, ears wide open wisdom now it flow...

scrolls in the sky set high to low, skies of reality human brains unrolled, scrolls as brains biased now rent to flow, books of the life human brains let go thunder, cosmic brain shutter make the earth flutter, brains of human man as sand, time dissipated so anticipated, positive and negative memories as one no more time, once kept in bias humankind to unwind, the universe dial set to equal, equality for equal for one the sequal, larger reality the past repeating no more to unfurl....

Yet:

We should fear God (Matthew 10:28)
We should love God (Matthew 22:37)
There is no fear in love (1 John 4:18)

"Is it any wonder the monkey's confused?" Roger Waters


Wouldn't fear and love be opposites...



Pfft...it's Alice in Wonderland chit, I don't have to "fear" anyone or anything to live a moral life. Those that hang on bizarre beliefs to make them think they are "saved" are the planet's problem children. They are much more paranoid over dying than rational people are...heh.

Or her, no one really knows...
Actually, the divine feminine as the creating power makes more sense.

i don't think God wants you to fear fear him, its more of a respect. Do you fear your parents...no you respect them and don't want to disappoint them. I don't fear God, but I have a respect for him and don't want to displease him...after all it's the least i can do for the one who created me..right

exactly, it boils down to fear of disappointing God and doing as we're not suppose to. And that goes into the fear of what God can and will do to the ones that don't do his will but there own will in there life.

How can you ever disappoint god? He loves you unconditionally.

The only judge of you will be... YOU!

AMEN! 'Adventure'.

There is NO CORRELATION WHATSOEVER between 'respect', 'integrity', 'honesty', 'sincerity', 'unconditional love', ... and 'fear'!!!

The only possibility for respect is founded in LOVE, not fear. Fear will only and always bring 'submission', ... but respect, NEVER!

The 'book', the 'dogma', or the 'people' that would lead you to believe otherwise, are either the tools of manipulators, manipulators themselves, or 'subjects' under the spell of 'manipulators' and their perverted intent.

The concept of 'god fearing human', is a man made manipulation intended for power and control of humans, by humans.
Regardless of how some may interpret the 'book', 'God' has nothing to do with man's lies, ... and fear is the ultimate human lie!!!

well we all have the right to our own opinions, and beliefs. I don't argue, or go back and forth, tit for tat. So long is you have researched your beliefs and are comfortable in your choice. I for one have and I am..

Well '4974', looks like you have just engaged in an argument with those whom argue!!!

Arguing and counter arguing, or going 'tit for tat' is what debating, and these forums are all about '4974'.

This is a place where, contrary to what you 'argued' in your post above,
... arguing and counter-arguing, following certain rules of civility and avoiding personal attacks, IS EXACTLY WHAT THERE IS TO DO.

So, to your legitimate argument 'don't argue', I repectfully counter-argue,

... on the contrary, this is a place designed FOR civil arguments!!!

You can disappoint God by murdering, stealing, lieing, and many others. Mainly breaking any one of the 10 commandments. But very true he loves you unconditionally if you ask for forgiveness, truely meening it and repent from whatever it is you're asking forgiveness of, you will be forgiven and it will be like you never did it in the first place.

Can't be 'cowboy' !!! You can't keep having it both ways!!!

It's unconditional or it's not.

Even 'god' doesn't agree with you here!
