will die II 1t eats, and sure it will
die II doesn't eat; fears what II
calls the devil fears God, and
fears death with the utter hope
lessness and belplessness OF abject
slavery.
There is an old Arabian fable
antedating the Christian era by
hundreds OF years, which bears
very pertlnently On the question
Of fear. 1t relates that two
spectres were met going into a
city by a man who stopped them
and asked their names. One Of
them said, My name is Cholera
and the other said, MY name is
Fear" He asked them why they
were going into the city, and
Cholera said, II am going in to
kill N man." and Fear said, "a
will kill the rest" AS we read
in history the story OF the black
plague ia London, we learn that
thousands died at that time, not
because they had the plague, but
because OF their fear OF it.
There il no advancement, no
hope fort he man in fear of this
kind, and we may escape it by
being obedient to our Bibles, and
seeking first the Kingdom Of Coz
that is within us, knowing that
it is true that we live, move and
nave our being in God, who is
Love. Herein lies our freedom,
lor u Bibles teaches US that
there is no fear in Love, for per-
.ect Love casteth out fear.
