Spurgeon: Fear of God vs fear of man

Posted on by Pam Larson

But You, You are to be feared! —Psalm 76:7

The fear of man is a snare, but the fear of God is a great virtue, and has great power for good over the human mind. God is to be feared profoundly, continually, and alone. Let all worship be to him only.

~C.H. Spurgeon, in The Treasury of David
