St.John ...Thank you for the excellent observations. St.John also tells us that "he who fears is not made perfect in love" and that love is what drives out fear. Your point about the Bible repeating 'fear not' shows the depths of John's thought: If God is Love then we have nothing to fear.

Cowardice is not...Thanks for telling it like it is. Cowardice is not a virtue. And red pills are not embracing faith at all. Somebody smart once said fear is such a stumbling block, the bible has 365 "fear nots," one for every day of the year. I often note that misogyny, the real kind, is rooted in fear. Not fear of women so much, but men's fear of themselves. <br /><br />Ironically, what women are often attracted to is fearless men. With the exception of a few wounded and broken women, what most women actually want and desire, is strong men, men of courage who don't fear themselves, men who can go boldly before the throne of grace.<br /><br />Obviously men and women can mess it all up, but that really is the essence of who we are, our intended design, and what we desire of one another. Feminists are often trapped in fear. So are red pills. Fear is a liar, as the song goes.insanitybytes22https://www.blogger.com/profile/15704422075852176824noreply@blogger.com
