Dear Sir,
With regard to the Commentary in January issue of en, the world is full of horrific situations and conditions. Tyranny can be experienced behind the supposed safe doors of our homes as well as affecting whole countries. This is the world we live in. John wrote ‘that the whole world is under the control of the evil one’ (1 John 5.19).
Asking difficult questions

Dear Sir,
Matthew Baalham, in his challenging article
‘Cancel Christmas?’
(November en)
writes eloquently of
the difficulty many
Christians experience during the Christmas
period when the
image presented of our
Saviour, along with the customs and traditions, are so different from what we read in
Scripture. We expect pressure to conform to
this world, but when
it comes
from the
church
itself we are
faced, as Matthew
Baalham said, with ‘a time of feeling very
compromised’.
