Deuteronomy 10:
12 And now, Israel, what does the LORD your God
ask of you but to fear the LORD your God, to
walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve
the LORD your God with all your heart and with
all your soul, 13 and to observe the LORD’s
commands and decrees that I am giving you
today for your own good?
20. Our respond?
1. Fear Him
• to give him utmost reverence,
awe, respect and honor
1. Love Him
21. Our respond?
Fear of God - love of God = legalism,
obligation, lifeless religion
Love of God - fear of God = disobedience,
cheap grace, powerless life
Both of them guides your
“path of life with God”
22. Acts 2:36
"Therefore let all Israel be assured of this:
God has made this Jesus, whom you
crucified, both Lord and Messiah."
Jesus is both LORD & MESSIAH
