FEAR IS A MASTER INTELLECTUAL FRAUD
Religious Theologian's use it, Political Tyrants Use it, Police Forces Use it, Educators Use it and every citizen who does not seek to know God. The Use of "FEAR" as a method of coercion, and control to commit atrocities upon their fellows.
The only cure for this social disorder is to follow the often repeated counsel of our Creator.
Be of good cheer, and have no fear"
Jesus spread good cheer everywhere he went. He was full of grace and truth. His associates never ceased to wonder at the gracious words that proceeded out of his mouth. You can cultivate gracefulness, but graciousness is the aroma of friendliness which emanates from a love-saturated soul.
Goodness always compels respect, but when it is devoid of grace, it often repels affection. Goodness is universally attractive only when it is gracious. Goodness is effective only when it is attractive.
If you have already conquered yourself within your own heart, you need have no fear of that outward victory which you must presently gain
"Though human beings differ in many ways, the one from another, before God and in the spiritual world all mortals stand on an equal footing. There are only two groups of mortals in the eyes of God: those who desire to do his will and those who do not. As the universe looks upon an inhabited world, it likewise discerns two great classes: those who know God and those who do not.
Mankind can appropriately be divided into many classes in accordance with differing qualifications, as they may be viewed physically, mentally, socially, vocationally, or morally, but as these different classes of mortals appear before the judgment bar of God, they stand on an equal footing; God is truly no respecter of persons. Although you cannot escape the recognition of differential human abilities and endowments in matters intellectual, social, and moral, you should make no such distinctions in the spiritual brotherhood of men when assembled for worship in the presence of God."
