Do you worship God out of love or out of fear?

First out of love and respect and appreciation. Also I have a healthy fear of displeasing God.

Answer 3

I worship out of love. The Bible says, "Do not be afraid" or some variation 365 times. If God wanted our fear He could have just as easily taken away our free will and made us worship Him.

I love a God who loved me so much He sent His beloved Son to die a horrible death to save me. I love a God who left Heaven and shed His divinity to be like me. He suffered the same discomforts of hunger, cold, anger, frustration and even diaper rash so He would be able to say to His Father, "I know what he's going through right now".

I love a God who loved me before I was created even though He knew how often I would disappoint Him. Basically, I love a God who loved me first and will always love me no matter what I do. He will always call me back to Him and heal me as much as I let Him.

Answer 5

Worship God out of love to my ownself; I
believe that I can get reward out of doing goods.
Say : respecting parents and love them. I know and I really feel that parents really care for me since I was child; so not only I respect them to thank them but also to thank God for giving me such parents, I do it as a worship as well.
Another thing for example : I was really angry to somebody who cheated me, as a worship to God I did not revenge but instead I said YOU Know what's behind it, Youre the Judge, give me peace and please let me continue my life in grace.

I dont think I can love God, I need God's Love. So I worship God to get God's love. I dont fear God, I fear my own stupidity, fear myown ignorance.

Answer 6

Fear might be the key for so many other things, but not for 'Worship'.

If somebody worships out of fear, it is simply that he/she had wrongly labeled the fear as worship.

Answer 7

Love when I am in God's will and pleasing God by following His ways.
The Fear kicks in when I have sinned and need forgiveness and to keep me on track or from falling short and displeasing God again.

Answer 8

I worship God out of Love. Holy Holy Holy isn't that all were here to do anyways? Too worship him?

Answer 9

Even out of hatred, provided if it is unattached to the worldly thoughts. There should be 'purity' in your love, or fear or hatred, towards God.

Love is the easy thing to do though, because fear or hatred in us can lead to misunderstand Him. The people with very high spiritual levels have done it and are in His abode.
