Jesus consistently inspired genuine awe through His authority, power, and compassion as seen in Matthew's Gospel. When confronting demons in Gentile territory, even they recognized and feared His divine authority. While the townspeople begged Jesus to leave after witnessing His power, true kingdom citizens embrace the transformation He brings. In another powerful scene, Jesus demonstrates His authority to forgive sins by healing a paralyzed man, addressing both physical and spiritual needs. These accounts remind us that a healthy fear of God is essential to faith, leading to obedience and trust rather than distance.
