This blog is based on references in the Bible to fear. God wills that we “BE NOT AFRAID”. Many theologians state that the eighth deadly sin is fear. It is fear and its natural animal reaction to fight or flight that is the root cause of our failings to create a Kingdom of God on earth. By “the power of the Holy Spirit” we can be witnesses and “communicators” of a new and redeemed humanity “even to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:7 8). This blog is dedicated to Mary the Mother of God.

Deuteronomy, Chapter
19, Verse 16-20
16 If a hostile
witness rises against someone to accuse that person of wrongdoing, 17 the two parties in
the dispute shall appear in the presence of the LORD, in the presence of the
priests and judges in office at that time, 18 and the judges must investigate it thoroughly. If the
witness is a false witness and has falsely accused the other,
19 you shall do to
the false witness just as that false witness planned to do to the other. Thus
shall you purge the evil from your midst. 20 The rest shall
hear and be afraid, and never again
do such an evil thing as this in your midst. 21 Do not show pity.
Life for life, eye for eye, tooth
for tooth, hand for hand, and foot for foot!
This is some pretty hard stuff. Yet, we should not
be namby-pamby either. There should be a system of justice and we should be
just people. Christ reminds us that if we want justice we must be just
ourselves.
Answer by Fr. John Echert[1]
on 6/12/2001:
The Gospel of St. Matthew records these words of Jesus in the Sermon on
the Mount:
5:38 "You have heard that it was said, —An eye for an eye and a
tooth for a tooth.' 5:39 But I say to you, Do not resist one who is evil. But
if any one strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also; 5:40 and
if any one would sue you and take your coat, let him have your cloak as well;
5:41 and if any one forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. 5:42 Give
to him who begs from you, and do not refuse him who would borrow from you. 5:43
"You have heard that it was said, —You shall love your neighbor and hate
your enemy.' 5:44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who
persecute you, 5:45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven;
for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the
just and on the unjust. 5:46 For if you love those who love you, what reward
have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 5:47 And if you salute
only your brethren, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the
Gentiles do the same?
