D.L. Moody emphasizes that the fear of the Lord is foundational to true
knowledge, asserting that without trust in God, one's understanding is
incomplete and flawed. He warns that even those who achieve great
knowledge in science are ultimately ignorant if they turn their hearts
away from God. Moody highlights that claiming there is no God is
foolishness, regardless of one's worldly wisdom or accolades.

The Fear of the Lord

"The Fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge." He who does not
trust in God, knows nothing yet as he ought to know. His knowledge is
partial and distorted. Whatever acquisitions in science he may attain,
if his heart depart from the Living God, he abides an ignorant man. He
who in his heart says, "No God. " is a fool, however wise he may be in
the estimation of the world, and his own.
