Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord we persuade men everywhere to repent

Your reason to show fear or to show reverence to God, is too think of Lucifer {DEVIL} and i/3 of the angels who fall worshiped God and became to to comfortable and lost their fear of God. It's like getting comfortable with Daddy and then you start to break the rules and now an angry {FATHER} show's up. When you were not breaking the rules all you seen was Daddy being good too you and you had no reason to fear. But Now you don't fear him you are disrespecting him, and now it is Too late you goofed up now an angry God will bring Justice.
