What does fear god mean?

Over the years words change their meaning. Such examples are words like 'aggravate' which today means 'to annoy' but originally meant 'to increase the load on' (as if you are putting extra packages on a donkey) , or 'gay' which originally meant 'happy' but now means 'homosexual'. A similar case occurs with the word 'fear'. Originally - in the time of the King James Version Bible, the word 'fear' did not mean, as it does today, 'to be scared of'. Rather, it meant 'have deep respect for'. Therefore one should fear God - in other words, respect God for who he is - show him respect and honour and love. In the same Bible, we are also asked to fear our parents - not to be scared of them (!!!) but to show them the respect they should receive from us.

Instead, the word 'fear' means 'a healthy respect for', or to 'stand in awe of' him - or, even more accurately, a mixture of the two.
