They shall become my people and I will become their God. I will fill their hearts with fear of me, and so they will not turn away from me. Jesus kept making people uncomfortable because truth is discomforting. The mystics always talk about terror and I've never understood it, although I do now. It's the recognition of what truth means.
Truth is frightening, terrifying.
I'm not sure I really want to be with the truth which is why we work so hard to control it, suppress it, and take the life out of it. When the guys were in the boat when Jesus calmed the storm, I'm convinced that they were more afraid when the storm was over. They knew the terror of near death in a storm, but now they knew a new terror. The terror of a God who can calm a storm. And I don't think there are enough terrified people in the church.
