I learned today...
2 fears of the Scriptures:
1. fear- terrified/ move away from
2. fear- awe, drawn to
Unbelievers/ NonChristians fear (are terrified of) the Lord. When we become believers/ Christians, that old 'fear' (terrified) becomes a new fear (awe, drawn to) and is glorifying to God and good for us.

Exodus
20:18 When the people saw the thunder and lightning and heard the trumpet and saw the mountain in smoke, they trembled with fear. They stayed at a distance and said to Moses, "Speak to us yourself and we will listen. But do not have God speak to us or we will die."

I'd like to do a word study and see what other verses say about fear.
