When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
Interesting that the above scripture says "thou shall not be afraid of him" which is another way to say "thou shall not fear him". With that said, what does this say?
It seems that in the old testament that a true prophet of God was respected in the sense of fearing that prophet. Not because of the prophet or the man, but because a true prophet spoke the word and words of God.
We again see this in the new testament. Do you know where and in regards to what passages?
Blessings, in Christ
