Copyright, 1964, by the Pacific Press Publishing Association. 3 ALPHA Heaven-Sent Message of Good Cheer When the Soviet premier made his announcement, subsequently modi- fied, that Russia now possesses a "monstrous new weapon," he revealed anew the hopelessness that permeates the world today. "So what?" was the immediate answer of multitudes around the globe. If existing nuclear weapons are capable of destroying all civilization in a matter of hours, why worry if someone has found a way to do it in seconds? Furthermore, if the new weapon is non-nuclear, as was later explained, it largely nullifies the value of the test-ban treaty, which sought to prevent the augmentation of nuclear devices. Thus another glimmer of hope fades into obscurity. Likewise, the last relic of hope that the United Nations might provide the means to assuage international tensions has largely disappeared. With its pathetic failures in the Congo and Yemen, and the revelation of its almost total helplessness in Cyprus, nobody longer believes that its efforts can be other than feeble and temporary. Tension between Russia and China, Malaysia and Indonesia, Arabia and Israel, Black Africa and South Africa, indicates the frailty of the peace we enjoy today and how quickly all that has been gained since 1945 could be lost in the maelstrom of another world war. Riots in leading cities of America, India, Korea, Japan, and other countries, together with the madness of modern youth seeking expression in senseless vandalism and lawlessness, provide still further evidence of the hopelessness in the hearts of multitudes today. Contented people, with a hopeful outlook, don't act this way. These may be years of prosperity and plenty, but acquisition of material goods has brought little genuine happiness. Better-equipped houses and two-car garages have not reduced the number of broken homes. Millions who possess more mechanical gadgets than any other generation are pe- rennially dissatisfied and disgruntled, trying to drown their frustrations in alcohol, suffocate them with tobacco smoke, or numb them with barbitu- rates. More people have more time for recreation nowadays, but seemingly with little inner joy and contentment. More people consult psychiatrists today than ever before, but with ever decreasing peace of mind. by Arthur S. Maxwell Even in religious circles there is not much true hope left. False scien- tific hypotheses have largely destroyed faith in the Bible, while modernist 2,sfE preachers have just about eliminated God from His universe. Bible promises that once brought hope to millions seem no longer valid, leaving millions with "no hope, and without God in the world." Ephesians 2:12. Desperately needed today is a revival of hope based on sound, incon- trovertible evidence. This in turn demands a rediscovery of God, the God of the Bible, for there is no hope for the present or the future apart from Him. There is profound truth in a passage in the book of Revelation which depicts the giving of a message to all mankind in the days preceding the final scenes of earth's history: "I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting TlinZ gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, saying with a loud voice, Fear God, ‹pl and give glory to Him; for the hour of His judgment is come: and wor- ship Him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters." Revelation 14:6, 7. Note well the burden of this message: "Fear God, and give glory to Him." The existence of God, the omnipotent and eternal Deity, who created and sustains all things, lies at the foundation—at the very heart —of the everlasting gospel. As men turn to this sublime personal Being in worship and adoration, they discover not only an all-powerful Creator but an infinitely loving Friend—someone upon whom they can lean in every time of need, and on whose promises they can rely with confidence. They discover, too, the plan which this infinite Creator devised for man's redemption—His willingness not only to become man Himself but to die on a cross for the human race. They learn also of His resurrection from the dead, His ascension to heaven, and His promise to return as King of kings and Lord of lords. Here are the wellsprings of hope, hidden within and leaping forth from the infinite compassion of God. Hope springs eternal because it springs from God. Hope will never . die as long as God lives. From Him flows the "everlasting gospel"—the eternal good tidings of love, peace, and hope which in His limitless mercy He still offers to man. Within the "everlasting gospel" is all the hope the world needs today.

Impossible, really. The barrier between languages, even very closely related ones, is often insurmountable. Not because near equivalences don’t exist, but because, no matter how close you come, you can never perfectly render the tone, the undertones, or the style of a literary work in any language other than the original.

  • Varieties of Boundary Crossings
    Varieties of Boundary Crossings V. V. Raman1 Introduction Boundary-crossings are valuable in many ways. Sometimes they may even be essential for survival. In the complex world in which we live boundary crossings occur in a variety of contexts: Among the sciences, among religions, between science and religion, among cultures, within cultures, and so on. Normally every of us, whether professionally or individually, functions within circumscribed boundaries. Most of our thoughts, actions and behavior are within some boundaries. This is necessary for efficiency, personal security and self-confidence. It is also constrained by our capacities and resources. However, there arise situations when we have to go beyond the boundaries: for enrichment, understanding, and peace. In this lecture, I propose to explore the variety of contexts in which boundary crossings occur, as well as their impacts, some beneficial and others not so. I will also indulge in some linguistic boundary crossing as I discuss the subject. Boundary Crossings in Different Spheres David Hilbert famously said that mathematics knows no race or geographical boundary [Die Mathematik kennt keine Rassen oder geographische Grenzen]. This is true of love and music also. But this is not the case in many other contexts. we need bridges not just between scientists and literati, but between physicists and biologists, cosmologists and theologians, theoreticians and common citizens, moral philosophers and soldiers in the battle-field, social reformers and traditionalists, evolutionists and creationists, cultural anthropologists and practitioners of the cultures studied, even between cartoonists and ardent religionists who demand everyone in the world to be subject to the laws of blasphemy of their own religion.
