In this sermon Blake Robert Templeton explains that the biblical "fear of God" is not a timid respect but a deep, trembling hatred of evil that drives believers to avoid separation from God's presence. He argues that many Christians have been away from God's presence for so long that they no longer recognize what it feels like to be in it, which explains why they struggle to hear God. Templeton attributes this spiritual deafness to the enemy’s influence, describing it as a "constipated" soul clogged with poisonous lies and voices. When a person truly hates what God hates, the hatred becomes a physical, visceral reaction—heat, sweating, a pulsating fire—signifying a genuine, God‑aligned fear rather than a mere intellectual assent.

Chapters

The fear of God is hating evil. To make the soul obey you is a trembling fear of being out of God's presence, being separated from God. So the fear of the Lord is a physical trembling of the thought of being outside of God. The problem is, as a believer, as a Christian, as a Catholic, we've been out of the presence of God for so long, we don't even know what it looks like to be in the presence of God because we We haven't been in control of our soul. So when people are like, man, I'm having a hard time hearing God, it's because the enemy, the voice of the enemy, has come in and is literally constipating the soul with all the poisons. When you hate what God hates, you don't do that with your head. You start literally having a boiling hatred within you where the fire inside you is so alive You literally are pulsating, sweating, like you have an absolute hatred for what is destroying you.
