Editor’s Note from April 09, 1976

The resurrection of Jesus is forever tied to the Cross of Calvary. In this Easter issue, Thomas Howard and David Wells promise thoughtful, biblical examinations of the meaning of the Cross.

George Knight’s essay is an exegetical study of the biblical data relating to one of the most widely discussed topics of the day: What is the role of women in the Christian faith and church? Letter writers take heed: this may offer you a golden opportunity.

Part two of David Haddon’s piece on Transcendental Meditation shows clearly that T.M. is a religion masquerading as a non-religion. If schools want to teach it, let it be taught under its proper identity—as a cult.

Happy Easter to all our readers. Jesus is risen!
