Plain path puritan

The faith that is pure (based on the pure and whole Word of God, not the word of man), bold (that fears only God and not man), and practical (that is not the endless and vain talk of philosophy and theory but is the experiential level of regenerated doing guided by the teaching of the Holy Spirit).

Seeing the difference between acting from rebellious, resentful self-will and acting from descent-of-the-dove God's will in gratitude, with increasing inner command, a king, recognizing the authority of the King above. Recognizing and accepting and joying in chain-of-command. Faith. 'k'ing and King, no mediator in between. This is bold and angers the world and the devil. It also is the death of one's vanity, worldly pride, and self-will. Recognize that which is higher than you. That which created you is higher than you. Man wants to slip in their. Fear only God. Stand up to the devil and his ministers and followers. They flee like rabbits when followers of Christ stand up to them.

To be in God's presence, and to fear only God makes one a dangerous figure on the landscape of the world. Expect war and fight like a king.
