Double Fear Not Their Fear I Peter 3:14,15

1Pe 3:14	But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, G5401 neither be troubled;
	1Pe 3:15	But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: G5401 This is an amazing passage when you look at the Greek for 1 Peter 3:14-  It says "Phobeo me phobeo autos phobos".   Literally Double Fear not their Fear.  This could mean to fear not fear itself or fear not their terror or what they can do to you.  A significant element of I and II Peter is about fear.  Fear and afraid and terror occur here more densely than anywhere else in the New Testament.   The point right here is to not let fear rule your mind and actions but to "sanctify" or set apart the Lord God in your hearts..."  If we magnify the Lord over our fears we will then be able to give an answer to every man for the reason for our hope. What a promise!
