One of the mind changes that occur with proper teaching is inner peace. Correct instruction about God teaches that we have nothing to fear. So why do we fear?
1. We forget the truth.
2. We don't believe that a situation that seems so new and threatening to us is actually so day-to-day for God.
3. We assume that inner peace comes from outer happiness of circumstance.
So, while we might think in a moment of terror on the ferris wheel that all is lost, actually, peace need not be threatened. But the nice thing is that God knows we will panic on a daily basis, and he isn't kicking us from his right hand. Ever. Since, for us to leave his 100% favor, Christ would have to leave it too.
