Fear God

'The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom.'Proverbs 9:10 Pride is the root of all evil. It was born the moment Lucifer declared, 'I will be like the Most High' (Isaiah 14:14). Every sin, every war, every act of racism and tribalism since then flows from that one catastrophic choice.But God was not surprised. Before the foundations of the world crumbled, He had already prepared His answer - a First Angel, flying in midair, carrying the Eternal Gospel to every nation, tribe, and people: 'Fear God and give Him glory.' Five words that cut to the very root of evil.As a neuroscientist, Dr. Gwebu reveals something remarkable: pride is not only a spiritual condition - it has a biological dimension. Through mirror neurons, pride is transmitted from leader to follower, generation to generation - rewiring the brain itself. Yet the same God who designed the brain also designed its remedy: neuroplasticity, the God-given capacity to change. Total surrender to Christ can rewire what pride has wired. The image of God, marred by the Fall, can be recovered. This book is for every layman who loves the Bible. For every pastor struggling with pride in the pulpit.For every African brother and sister caught is the grip of tribalism. For every heart that has ever chosen personal glory above God’s.The First Angel is still flying. The Eternal Gospel is still being proclaimed.It is time to Fear God.Ephraim T.
