Fear Is Not a Weakness — It’s a Sin (And the Bible Proves It)

Jan 9, 2026    Pastor Robert R. McLaughlin

The discussion focused on the doctrine of problems and problem-solving, particularly emotional sins like fear. McLaughlin emphasized that fear is a sin and a rejection of God's character, citing Deuteronomy 31:6 and Isaiah 41:10. Fear was described as leading to emotional fragmentation, including worry, anxiety, and violence. Pastor McLaughlin highlighted the importance of spiritual self-sustenance and confidence in God's promises. Example included David's resilience in the face of adversity. The key message was that true courage and confidence come from trusting in God's presence and plan.
