Proverbs 14:16

A wise man fears, and departs from evil: but the fool rages, and is confident.
Read Chapter 14

Clement Of Alexandria

AD 215
Awe is fear of the divine. But if fear is a passion, as some insist that fear is a passion, not every fear is a passion. Superstition is a passion, being the fear of spiritual powers which are themselves agitated by different passions. On the other side, the fear of the God who is free from passions is itself free from passions. It is really not a fear of God but a fear of losing him. This fear is a fear of falling into evil; it is a fear of evil. Fear of falling is a desire for incorruptibility and for freedom from the passions. ..

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
