1 John 4:18
New King James Version (NKJV)
18 There is no fear in ‘love’ (racham: compassion, mercy. etc..); but perfect ‘love’ (compassion) casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in ‘love’ (compassion).
And he feared they were coming, yet he knew, the Father’s wisdom, His compassion, would save millions; one life for many, and he overcame. In this way YH’shua teaches what true compassion is, that while we go forth in his expression (spirit), we too may find the courage to be sons and daughters of the true ‘Elohiym.
Always in YH’shua! (also see: John 14:12).
