To fear the lord is to truly fear not having him in your life! for example David begged the Holy spirit not to leave him! he feared being without Christ!.....so fear not having the lord and not his rath!.......
Wait, so all those Bible verses which say to fear the Lord, really say to fear the Lord not being there? That would be like me telling you to fear your legs, because if you lost your legs you would be miserable.

It may be in the Bible. But you may know, that I believe that those disciples' words have tampered with.

There may have been proof of God, but it was deleted.
Please, provide me with the compelling evidence which drives you to the conclusion that there is a God and that he sent his rules through the 12 disciples, who screwed it up, and God never came in and made a correction (even though he supposedly wants us to get the religion right or he wouldn't have influenced the disciples in the first place). There must be some reason why you believe this, and I am of the opinion that this is for psychological comfort and emotional reasons primarily, and your lack of evidence further confirms my belief that this is the case.

Good thing you have that part of your belief that says the Bible isn't true to the original, so you can conveniently ignore those verses which disagree with basic human morality, or your own personal opinions about morality. Like, for example, all the verses about Hell and how evil gay people supposedly are and the dozens of Biblical verses urging us to fear God.

What religions live in fear and where are these people?
So to answer your question, a whole lot of them. Especially Christianity. If you really believe in the Bible, that is, instead of throwing out anything you don't like.
