Use of Fear
Hebrews 11:7
By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house…


The Houourable Robert Boyle, distinguished alike as a philosopher and as a Christian, acknowledged (though "he blushed it was so")that his fear, during a tremendous thunderstorm in the night, while he resided in Geneva, "was the occasion of his resolution of amendment" — a resolution to which he faithfully adhered through life.

(J. F. B. Tinling, B. A.)
