KJV - 9: O fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

10: The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.

Ok, this has always bugged me about religion. How can anybody trust someone they fear? People can't love and fear at the same time. I'm pretty sure any mention of fear was added by those who took over Christianity in order to make us less effective and dependent on others to do our thinking for us.

You were never scared of what your dad was gonna do to you after he got home and your mom told him about the dumb shit you pulled at school that day?

No. They trusted me to be good and take care of my younger siblings, so I did.

The fear part is overplayed by churches to encourage attendance and donation. Corruption.

The fear part is for those who stray far away or practice as the jew or Muslim.
