Next month in the Journal

From the September 1978 issue of The Christian Science Journal


A selection of features focusing on ethics and morality, including:

Seventh commandment victory

"I saw clearly that there could be nothing to gain from satisfying such a temptation [of committing adultery]— that the claim of promised pleasure was an empty one, because it nested in the false claim that I already lacked something. That was impossible, for as God's image ... I could lack nothing good."

Resolving conflicting interests

"Monopolistic organizations . . . wield inflated bank balances to gain control of certain markets or government agencies. But alongside the power of the Almighty, such power is little more than a house of cards, which the slightest breeze collapses. We cannot believe that power belongs to people or factions at the same time we are realizing the omnipotence of God. Such realization heals conflicting interests by denying them reality."
