Leo Meidinger Taking the text from Luke 4, 9-13, the minister said, “When the Devil asked Jesus to cast himself down from the Pinnacle of the Temple in Jerusalem, Jesus answered and said “Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God”. Satan wanted proof, but Christ wanted the people to have Faith in Him. How easy it would have been for Jesus to prove He was the Son of God, and in our lives today said Rev. Morden, we have to live by Faith and Trust. A dramatization by Murray Fraser and Paul Wallis entitled “Sackcloth and Ashes” depicted Paul as Job being interviewed by Murray. Job relates the story of his Misery, and his comforters, saying “I clothed myself in Sackcloth, not because I was evil, but because God was greater than I was.

The readers write Dear Editor: Police is a word that makes some people cringe because of past involvement or just plain hate for any type of authority. I believe people have an attitude toward police in general that represents a Cowboy and Indian show where the police are the Indians.

When in fact, police are looking for people who are breaking laws that could actually hurt innocent people, criminally, or affect their safety. Became police have the job of piotecting people, the people Who are a hazard to the safety of others, in­ cluding he criminal sense, find it lard to understand why they are a target for police. : believe this is mainly due to a failure of understanding our laws as they affect others when we break them, and of course, the pride involved in ad­ mitting a mistake or misjudgement. Citizens should not fear law enforcement people or the laws, unless of course, they are breaking them or evading them. They should fear the Consequences of what couldhappen to them if they don’t abide by our safety rules which in fact are our laws. T)ieir own personal safety is jeopardized when they brea|: a rule (law) causing bodily injury or death, not considering legal penalties. I personally, as a citizen and a Peace Officer, would like people to understand this philosophy rather than the cowboj and Indian line and realizethatour laws are actually safety rules to follow and if we dbn’t, we know we will suffer) personally. It’s like touching a hot stove; we know we will suffer a burn if we do, so ire don’t touch it. Then again, we are human and there will always be people with burnt fingers. R. W.
