This is from the Layman's Bible encyclopedia BTW.
BOLDNESS
Confidence, fearlessness, venturesomeness:
Sometimes,
lacking proper modesty or restraint.
(Surly not...
The wicked flee though no one pursues,
but the righteous are as bold as a lion.
Ephesians 3:11-12
according to his eternal purpose that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.
1 John 4:17-18
King James Version
Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. 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.
(Perfect in love, Wesleys 2nd act of grace, Christian perfection etc...)
Acts 4:13
Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John,
and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men,
they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them,
that they had been with Jesus.
Resonates...yeah...lil bit.
