Book Review (August) : The Fear of God by John Bunyan

Book Review (August) : The Fear of God by John Bunyan

September 7, 2021
For The King

"When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, also the books, and above all the parchments." - 2 Timothy 4:13

“The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, and they that lack the beginning have neither middle nor end.” - John Bunyan

“Though there is not always grace where there is the fear of hell, yet, to be sure, there is no grace where there is no fear of God.” ― John Bunyan.

This episode I walk through The Fear of God by John Bunyan. It was a wonderful read and something definitely worth picking up. The contemporary church doesn't speak much about the fear of God, but I assure you that after reading this book by Bunyan you will be well informed. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Learning to fear God rightly is fruit that every Christian ought to bear. Thanks for listening!
