Timothy J. Keller Quote
The angel literally says, Do not be fearing. Be perceiving. For I am telling you the Gospel. This is the principle—behold and you won’t be afraid. If you take time to comprehend (behold) what is in the Gospel message, it will remove the fear that has dominated and darkened your life. To the degree you truly behold—gaze at, grasp, relish, internalize, rejoice in—the Gospel, to that degree the fears of your life will be undermined.
