When God was said to be a lion, people were excited. When Holy Spirit was compared to a dove people understood. When God was said to be the Father, people are slow to understand. People understood when you compare The Lord to animal and to a bird, but they do not understand when He was compared the to human being.
God sent Moses and he could not reveal the Father. God sent Elijah and he could not reveal the Father. Only Son can do this. So the Father when he was about to send the Son, he paused. It's because If there was a father and if he was cruel to his son, then if you go and tell that particular son that the God is like father then he would think that God is cruel. So the Father in heaven wanted the fathers to turn to their sons and sons to their fathers. Some one has to go ahead of Jesus and do this. This job was given to Elijah.
Some people squeeze out their battery to the job, friends and to certain people and when they come home, they use the home as battery recharging socket. They do not come a bit of battery left in them. They supposed to keep some for the family because God can take it into his notice.
Salvation was given to us by Christ but carrying it to the end was a job given to us. You have to continue it with fear and trembling. It's an unavoidable battle. How am I standing, because I always have a fight. Body against the spirit and spirit against body. As long I have this battle this shows to my Lord that I am hungry and thirsty for the righteousness, and I will be satisfied. This battle may be heavy today and may be very light tomorrow but you can not get rid of it. This fear is not for punishment it's a passion to keep up the righteousness. This fear is ok.
