Fear that makes you aware of your sinful state, is a Holy fear. If
you can feel it, then it is good- it's a positive sign, that you are
spiritually alive .
But, if you can't sense the *stench of your sin- it's a clear sign- you are almost dead ! you are on the way to damnation !
*
Awareness of your sinful state. It's a lull created by the 'Tempter',
where a person feels perfectly contented with life, without God.
