1 John 4:17-19 Breaking Free from Torment and Fear of Punishment

Do you struggle with a constant fear of God's punishment? Does anxiety about judgment keep you from experiencing peace in your relationship with Him? In this teaching from 1 John 4:17-19, we explore how perfect love casts out fear—and why so many believers live in torment instead of confidence. John reveals that fear and love cannot coexist, and that every mental health battle has fear somewhere in its root system. If you've been living with a punishment-based relationship with God instead of a love-based one, this message will help you understand the perfecting work of love and how to stand bold, not terrified, before your Father. 📘The Myth of the Perfect One: https://bit.ly/44kZu7B ❓Submit a Question: https://markdejesus.com/questions/ 📘Get The OCD Healing Journey Book Today: https://markdejesus.com/the-ocd-healing-journey-book/ ➡️Get a FREE eBook on the Father’s Love: https://bit.ly/3fGu6t3 ▶️Mark's resource library: https://markdejesus.com/topics/ 👉Support future videos: https://markdejesus.com/donate/ 🌎Join the Healing and Freedom Community: https://markdejesus.com/community 📚Mark's books: https://markdejesus.com/books-by-mark-dejesus/ Music Provided by Epidemic Sound: https://share.epidemicsound.com/73m02k and Audiio: https://ref.audiio.com/3c99d6zk Mark's Podcast and Video Equipment: https://markdejesus.com/equipment/ Disclaimer: The content published is for informational purposes.
