See, this gets at the root of how 'the truth shall set you free'. The natural man sees events in the world as threatening to his stability and sense of how things ought to be. A man who has truly been baptised by fire and changed to a spiritual man understands that things actually are the way they ought to be as all events he faces are nothing more than experiences presented to him for his growth. When this truth and understanding enters the mind, the man really is free. He no longer has to fight with the world around him constantly. He just lets things be as they are and tries to understand what it is he is supposed to understand therefrom. He does not worry about events. He has no fear. There is no fear because he KNOWS that whatever happens will ultimately work for his good. Therefore he welcomes whatever comes at him. He knows he is invincible, even if he dies. The fear dissipates.
