What are the two paths of life?
- A path of obedience to God and its blessings, and
- A path of disobedience to God which brings curses.
The path of obedience to God is marked by the fear of the Lord.
Well what is the fear of the Lord?
The fear of the Lord is that all-encompassing idea that the Bible brings together this sense of awe and reverence and worship and fear, so that every facet of your life is lived in the recognition that God is—that you've been made for God and you are moving toward God. It is to be in a place marked by worship.
Today's message finishes Mark's study on Deuteronomy.
"The Lord will establish you as His holy people, as He promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the Lord your God and walk in obedience to Him." - Deuteronomy 28:9
