Fear
Bad news, kids. I was wrong. This verse is referring to being afraid of God, not Satan. And to that I say: why does God have to sound so menacing sometimes? It’s not palpable for newcomers. Or me, for that matter. I know I sound flippant, but still. HELL and DESTROY seem so… final. Not post-modern hip at all.
I should have known better. Jesus would never have told people to be afraid of Satan, not after I’ve thought about it some. I think Jesus was mostly annoyed by Satan, and concerned about us, not him. I should take note.
