Editor’s Note from April 26, 1974

Homosexuality continues to become more conspicuous in our society as gay liberators carry on their campaign of public persuasion. In this issue the article on the gay-oriented Metropolitan Community Church was written by a homosexual who through Jesus Christ has found deliverance from bondage to his sexuality. He unmasks ad hominem arguments used in the attempt to validate a practice that the Scriptures forbid.

Editor-at-large Carl F. H. Henry takes a hard look at a book scheduled for publication this week: The Young Evangelicals by Richard A. Quebedeaux (Harper & Row). Henry examines the views of the young evangelicals, tells where he agrees and disagrees with them, and offers some seasoned advice.

A two-part essay on missions by Peter Beyerhaus begins in this issue. It was written for the upcoming International Congress on World Evangelization, but in this preliminary period it represents only his own views, not those of the congress.

I am happy to report that more than 450,000 copies of my book The World, the Flesh, and the Devil are in print. I’m getting some interesting mail on it. Let me suggest, with all the objectivity I can muster—which isn’t much!—that you read it if you haven’t done so yet.
