1 John 4:18 Douay-Rheims

Fear is not in charity: but perfect charity casteth out fear, because fear hath pain. And he that feareth, is not perfected in charity.

Francis Patrick Kenrick

1796–1863 Catholic

" Perfect charity casteth out fear, and not only prevents the commandments from proving an overwhelming burden, but makes them serve as wings to elevate the soul." St. Augustin de Perfectione, c. x.
