28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and offer to God acceptable worship with reverence and awe,
29 for our God is a consuming fire.
4 Who will not fear, O Lord,and glorify your name?For you alone are holy.All the nations will comeand worship before you,for your righteous acts have been revealed.«
1 Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
28 And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
