Dr. Frank graduated from Gordon College and Gordon Divinity School in Boston and Wenham, Massachusetts, and served as pastor at First United Presbyterian Church in Lawrence, Massachusetts, Mt. Lebanon United Presbyterian Church, Mt. Lebanon, Pennsylvania, and South Hills Reformed Presbyterian Church, Upper St. Clair, Pennsylvania. He earned his doctorate from Westminster Theological Seminary, Escondido, California, in 2003. As part of his doctorate project, he authored the book, The Fear of God: A Forgotten Doctrine.
Arnold was a humble man who loved and trusted in Christ, his Savior and Lord, and practiced what he preached. Many were called into Christ's Kingdom and encouraged in their walks with Christ through the gifts God gave him to preach and teach. His life was a witness to the truths of God's Word, and he looked forward to the day when he would see Christ fully and sing His praises.
Early on, Frank includes helpful definitions of the Fear of God found in Puritan writings. The first discovery of the Fear of God is found to be in Heaven. There the fear was not a fear of dread or terror but of a worshipful demonstration that is of the very nature of the Fear of God. The Fear of God is expected from all beings made in God's image.
The central portion of the book describes the fears that people have in their spiritual search. Those fears are variously identified as exclusively ungodly fear, as provisionally godly fear, and as perpetually godly fear. A misplaced fear is described and known as the fear of man. Most everyone has this fear to a greater or lesser degree.
The final chapter of the book is largely dedicated to Christian preachers. Practical guidance is given on the preaching of the fear of God. The appendix has a Puritan sermon that would be helpful in these matters.
