WORTH REPEATING No matter what your chosen faith may be, we believe that the following quote taken from the McMinnville (Ore.) News- Register bears reprinting. It was composed by the Reverend William E. Rose of the First Assembly of God: “Spying is risky, costly business. We were made newly aware of this in the Pueblo incident and now at even greater loss in terms of lives with the downing of the U. S. intellignece plane off Korean waters. “I’ve been asked ‘How does a Christian view this matter, one brother spying on another?* “Obviously the relationship of Christian and true brother hood would make incidents like this totally unnecessary. But the problem arises in that the world is not Christian. The na tions are not Christian and do not operate on the principles that make for peace. "Some cry for us to stop such spying. To do so would be national catastrophe. You can’t force Christian principles (and that is what all the true principles of brotherhood are) on Un christian people. My point is simply this: the business of the Christian Church is not to stop the spying nor the wars nor the vice and crime. In short it is not to stop anything but to start an inward revolution. “The gospel is the good news of a person and work that unites man with God and man with man in a heart-to-heart experience. To teach brotherhood is not enough. We have to be made brothers inwardly first. "We need an inward revolution, a revolution of love. As long as the bulk of the world’s leadership seeks military might as a means for peace, there will necessarily have to be intelli gence operations spying on one another. “There is great need for the Christian Church to rise to the crisis of the hour and proclaim the good news of a better way. This better way is found not only in the principles of Christianity, but also in the person, Christ, who said, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life.” Shouldn't all of us seek the inward revolution of which Mr. Rose speaks? Wouldn’t it be a better world for all?
