Fear of God
Fear of God is the idea of living in respect, awe, and submission to a deity.
Christianity
The first mention of the fear of God in the Hebrew Bible is in Genesis 22:12, where Abraham is commended for putting his trust in God. The New Testament book of Hebrews comments on this event by explaining, "Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was in the act of offering up his only son, of whom it was said, 'Through Isaac shall your offspring be named.' He considered that God was able even to raise him from the dead, from which he did receive him back."
(Hebrews 11:17-19). Because of this passage many Christians conclude that Abraham's fear of God was an act of trust in God, that God would give Isaac back to Abraham. Others believe that Abraham's fear of God was his willingness to obey God, even though it would mean losing his Son. Many Jews and Christians believe the fear of God to be devotion itself, rather than a sense of being frightened of God. It can also mean fear of God's judgment. The fear of God is described in Proverbs 8:13 as "the hatred of evil." Throughout the Bible it is said to bring many rewards. Conversely, not fearing God is said to result in Divine retribution.
Fear of God (Swiss band)
Fear of God (often abbreviated to F.O.G.) were a Swiss grindcore band who were active in the mid-1980s.
They started in 1986 and broke up in 1988, but briefly reformed in the middle of 2002.
Their first release was a self-titled, 21-track 7-inch EP, released in 1987. It was one of the first grindcore releases, and was very extreme for its time. Their most well-known and acclaimed work is the Pneumatic Slaughter EP.
The band is not to be confused with a number of other bands called Fear Of God. One was a Los Angeles thrash metal band that eventually morphed into F.O.G., which was then based in Baltimore. Another earlier Fear Of God from Baltimore was an old school hardcore punk band which was active in the early 1980s.

Oh wie vornehm Sie doch gehn
Nerze, Biber und sogar Tiger
Müssen dran Glauben, ist mir's zuwider!
Reiche Weiber die kaum mehr atmen
Nachher noch in Fetten braten
Unschuldige Tiere erleiden Tod und Pein
