Let's see now, we are discussing SCRIPTURE (a SPIRITUAL topic).
The "FEAR" that SHOULD be discussed is "FEAR OF God" (and we might as well also address the topic of 'FEAR OF satan').
Scripture is talking about SPIRITUAL FEAR (specifically the "fear of God", not the things or activities that we are cautious of in everyday life (being afraid/cautious of certain things is wise and healthy).
The fear OF GOD is ONLY THE BEGINNING of wisdom FOR AN UNBELIEVER, but when we come to know God, our love should become PERFECT (no more fear of Him......because we have,,..or SHOULD HAVE learned of His loving kindness and that He is not a 'punisher', He is a REWARDER.
Now, who wants to "draw near" to God?.....I'm not talking about those who came to Him only to get salvation, or those who think He's cool and LIKE Him, I'm talking about those who have an ever-present URGE to know Him like King David (a man after God's HEART).
Since you are here on this forum trying to understand more about Him (God is NOT a scripture/text book, nor is He an obedience contest judge or a lawyer). We should NOT FEAR HIM at all (even in word usage). Because our love is now PERFECT (or should be, 1 John 4:18) and we WANT His loving correction when He teaches us the error of our way, our only attitude toward Him is LOVE. I did not resent/fear my dad when he taught me not to do things that were bad (I knew he was teaching me "goodness"). So neither should we resent God for correction. Let GOD DECIDE when AND IF you should be taught, you may not be ready to understand yet (or at all) because of your experiences in life (maybe you are a different kind of person that He will use later on (secularly or otherwise) to help drug addicts, prisoners, people who are suicidally depressed (like I was), etc..
Hebrews 11:6
"whoever would DRAW NEAR to God must believe that....
1) he exists....
2) AND that he REWARDS those who seek him"......this is why we must have a "FAITH FOR faith"...not simple "faith TOWARD" God.
Romans 1:17 "the righteousness of God is revealed through faith for faith"....THAT is the goal/objective, is it not?.
Hebrews chapter 6 defines the APOSTATE DEVOTION and says that OUR DEVOTION/RELATIONSHIP today should no longer BE BASED on what Jesus DID. Salvation has OCCURED/happened (the "DOCTRINE OF CHRIST", the final 'sin sacrifice', Christ and Him crucified) has HAPPENED...FOREVER/finalized), it is DONE and has been ACCOMPLISHED/finalized. Now we should MOVE ON to a deeper, more intense devotion (a "more excellent" devotion)....
1 Corinthians 12:31 "And now, let me show you a more excellent way" based on the "GREATEST of these" (1 Corinthians 13:13).
Hebrews 6:1 says we should move on to "MATURITY" in Jesus (the "more excellent" devotion to Him) and no longer have REPENTANCE as a foundation, but JESUS ONLY as our foundation.....AND ALSO that we should no longer have mere "faith TOWARD God" (we are completely aware that He does "EXIST", and now we shall also believe that He is a loving kind "REWARDER").
"Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God" (Hebrews 6:1).
A "more excellent" devotion is based on having only one attitude towards God (LOVE, God is LOVE)....NO FEAR of Him (make your offering/devotion/relationship to Him what He is.....LOVE. Love your chosen loved ones, but "PERFECT" love is for God only.
Isaiah 29:13 "and their fear of me is a commandment OF MEN" (talking about those whose worship is 'LIP SERVICE').
So IF and when God decides that you should be taught the error of your way, DO NOT RESENT Him for it (do not fear His reproach, it is the loving correction that He decided you need).
==========
We also have no need to fear satan.....YOUR SPIRIT strengthened by GOD'S Holy Spirit (the combination) keeps satan (the man of lawlessness...a great MYSTERY) BOUND FROM YOU....
2 Thessalonians 2:6
"And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time".
....FULL understanding of the "MYSTERY of lawlessness" is that WE play a part in "lawlessness" by giving in to satan's temptation. WE (the modern secular "church", "SON of perdition") are the result of centuries of LIES/perdition.
........NO FEAR!.
