INSIDE: LOOKING INTO THIS ISSUE

The Editors

One of the basic challenges each of us comes face to face with in praying about the big issues is fear. We may be afraid of the threat of holes in the ozone layer of the atmosphere—or just be afraid we can't cope with such large issues. But scientific Christianity takes the position that fear is always at bottom a mistake. It isn't a solid, real entity, and it isn't a built-in weakness of human character—something we "just have to live with." Even fears that have seemed quite intractable begin to disappear in the light of a new spiritual realization that God loves man and is actually "with us."

The author of "Overthrowing the tyranny of fear and disease" reminds us that Christ Jesus said, "Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."

As others bring out in this issue, fear has to do with feeling mortal, alone and vulnerable; but it can be conquered by a truer understanding of God's great love, which leaves no one outside or alone.
