       Humans have one thing that we all fear. At least that’s my understanding. According to what appears to be a general consensus from psychologists, there is one thing people fear more than any other thing. Do you know what that is? Well, death of course. Whether the psychologist is coming from an evolutionary perspective or some other perspective, that seems to be the common consensus. It is interesting because I was listening to a Bible teacher not too long ago talk about this concept. When he posed the question of what he personally thought all human fear tied back to, he concluded that it was probably death. So, interestingly, he agreed with a lot of psychologists even though I don’t think he knows a whole lot about psychology. But, yes, this is my personal belief as well. All humans fear not being able to live any longer. At least, that’s what they initially fear. And it’s this very question that Christianity, interestingly enough, solves. For sure. Christianity fixes this problem with the human psyche.
