AC 3718 - two kinds of fear

AC 3718
Speaking generally, "fear" is of two kinds -
fear in what is not sacred,
and fear in what is sacred;
fear in what is not sacred
is the fear in which are the wicked;
but fear in what is sacred
is the fear in which are the good.
This latter fear . . . is called reverential or sacred fear,
and is the result of our wonder at
and longing for what is Divine,
and also of our love.
. . . The fear of love is a fear of injuring the Lord in any way,
or of injuring the neighbor in any way,
thus of injuring what is good and true in any way,
and consequently of injuring
the sacred things of love and faith
and the consequent worship.
But this fear is various,
and is not the same with one person as with another.
Speaking generally,
the greater the amount of the love of good and truth,
the greater the fear of injuring them;
and yet in the same proportion
this fear does not appear to be fear;
whereas the less the amount of the love of good and truth,
the less the fear on their account,
and the less this fear appears to be love,
but appears to be . . . the fear of hell.
And where there is nothing of the love of good and truth,
there is nothing of reverential or sacred fear;
but only fear of the loss of honor, of gain,
of reputation for the sake of these,
and also of penalties and death;
which fear is external,
and chiefly affects the body
and the natural person and its thoughts;
whereas the former fear, that is,
reverential or sacred fear,
chiefly affects the spirit,
that is, the internal person, and its conscience.
