The Forgotten Fear (Ebook)

Order this book

In an age when many expressions of the Christian faith have been softened or focused almost exclusively on God’s grace and love, this book recovers an essential dimension of true biblical piety: the fear of God. Written by Albert N. Martin, a respected pastor and theologian known for his commitment to the authority of Scripture, The Forgotten Fear offers a clear, biblical, and pastoral exposition of a grace that has been neglected—or even avoided—by many contemporary believers.

The author reminds us that the fear of God is not optional or reserved only for a few special saints; it is a distinguishing mark of everyone who claims to have a genuine relationship with the Lord. As he states from the outset: "A stranger to the fear of God is a stranger to the living God Himself."

Throughout the book, Martin:

• Establishes the biblical foundation of the fear of God in both the Old and New Testaments.
• Clearly defines what it means to "fear the Lord" and how this attitude shapes our spiritual life.
• Shows how the fear of God is deeply connected to holiness, wisdom, and true worship.
• Offers practical applications based on biblical examples such as Abraham and Joseph.
• Invites today’s believers to cultivate and grow in this fear through meditation on Scripture, prayer, and obedience.

This short but powerful book not only challenges the reader to reconsider their view of God, but also helps recover a holy reverence that transforms the Christian life at its very roots.

Ideal for both personal study and group discussion, The Forgotten Fear is a powerful tool for those who desire a deeper, humbler, and God-glorifying faith.
