Contradiction with 1 John 4:18
It contradicts Proverbs 28:14 by stating that perfect love casts out fear, implying that one should not dwell in fear, while Proverbs 28:14 suggests a sense of blessedness in fearing always.
1 John 4:18: There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
Contradiction with Philippians 4:6-7
It contradicts Proverbs 28:14 by encouraging believers to be anxious for nothing and to bring requests to God to receive peace, while Proverbs 28:14 commends a continuous state of fear.
Philippians 4:6-7: Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Contradiction with 2 Timothy 1:7
It contradicts Proverbs 28:14 by stating that God has given us a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind, not a spirit of fear, differing from the idea of fearing always in Proverbs.
2 Timothy 1:7: For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
Contradiction with Isaiah 41:10
It contradicts Proverbs 28:14 by reassuring believers not to fear because God is with them, offering strength and help, unlike the implied virtue in constant fear in Proverbs.
Isaiah 41:10: Fear thou not; for I [am] with thee: be not dismayed; for I [am] thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
