About This Quote
Some men are possessed by the fear of God. They are afraid of doing wrong because they are afraid of the consequences. The devil has a hold over them by making them think that they cannot live without God. People will tell them that if they try to live without God, they will end up in hell.
This is because the devil has implanted this fear into their hearts. There are some people who try to live without God, but end up losing their souls anyway. It is because of the fear of the devil that many people give up so easily on life because they are not able to depend on God.
