But we, on the other band, have learned to fear men in creasingly, Why? Because un- regenerate human nature equip ped with power is the most ter ribly destructive force on earth. It is the meanest, most cruel most sadistic, most vicious pow er of all. No specie^ of wild beasts or combination of them can inflict such cruelties and devastation as man. Instruments of whole sale destruction with which the monuments of civilization, built up during centuries, can be tom down over night; torture chambes, concentration camps, systematic starvation, slavery, etc., these are the inventions and devices of men, men with out God, men carnal and unre generated. - Nobody fears a pocket-knife, axe, pitchfork, sword, pistol, machine gun, airplane or even a hydrogen bomb In itseU. We do not even fear them If they fall Into the hands of men of good will, men truly bom of of God. The reason is tills; we know that a Christ-like man is harmless whatever his power or the instruments at his con trol. But when fearful instru ments of destruction fall into the hands of men who have no God in them, men who are self ish, ambitious, and merciless, we fear with good reason. What, then, is the solution to our fears? Drew Pearson says that we have tried every thing from pitch forks to atom bomb^ to effect peace and failed. He suggests that we now try the Sermon on the Mount What Mr. Pearson means, Is, this: Jesus Christ is our only hope, and the worlds’ against seU-destructlon and for social salvation.
