Although modern life is outwardly more secure than most past ages, men paradoxically display both a fascination with violence and an intense fear of it, feeding their imaginations on violent entertainment while living in constant dread of disaster and attack. This contradiction reveals a deeper problem: the fear of violence springs from guilt before God, just as Cain feared every man’s hand because he knew he stood condemned. Haunted by this guilt, men both fear violence and unconsciously invite it, leaving doors open to danger as if hoping their suffering might atone for their sin. But no human suffering can do so; only the atoning death of Jesus Christ reconciles man to God and frees him from both the fear and the appetite for violence. The man who trusts in the Lord, having peace with God through Christ, no longer needs violence in imagination or in fact, nor is he ruled by terror of it, for his confidence rests not in circumstances but in the sovereign faithfulness of God.
