SEE THE CHRIST AND NOT THE CRISIS

"Matters have reached a crisis!" How often is this cry uttered in the stress of human experience. The world appears to accept as natural and even inevitable the necessity of facing a series of crises in almost every phase of human existence.

In international affairs or in individual human relations, in business life or in bodily conditions, it too frequently seems that a deterioration from a harmonious state is found gathering momentum until a crisis is reached. At that point human sense says that things might begin to improve, but at the same time grimly steels itself for the worst.

Our first statement takes on greater significance if we change it to read, "Matter has reached a crisis." Only the material misconception of existence can ever be faced with what appears as a culmination of discord or a point where one turns toward either evil or good. Human sense often accepts the basic mortal concept of man's separation from good.
