What's God got to do with our sins? It is not God who makes us sin, Mark; we are the ones who condmen ourselves by tossing away God's helping hands. We should fear ourselves. That fear of God is alien to the Orthodox.
Sure, the priest calls us to approach the chalice "In fear and faith..." but that fear is awe. Many an Orthodox prayer calles God Comforter. How can one be in fear of the one who comforts us?
For if God is to be feared and a moody tyrant, then salvation is being saved from God rtaher than by God, because we all sin (willfully, and after having received the knowledge) until the end of our days.
And also my personal favorite, "Φιλανθρωπε", Friend of Man.
