TEMPTATION.

God tempts no man to evil, but He
tries every man, that he may be
saved. The words temptation and
trial were radically one and the same,
and, therefore, some confusion has
arisen as to the meaning of this petit
ton. st. James says: LET no man
say that He is temper of evil, and
He tempts no man. But every man
is tempted, being drawn by his own
concupiscence," and the same Apostle
says: Blessed is the man who en-
dureth temptation, for when he hath
been proved he shall receive the
crown of life, which God gives to
them that love Him." His faith is
tried in the fire, and if faith stands
the trial he receives the reward. An
other sense of temptation is when
God tempted Abraham to leave his
kindred, home and house and go into
the land He should show him. God
laid on him this commandment to try
Abraham's faith. And, when, after
telling him that his seed should be
as the stars of Heaven, God babe him
sacrifice his only son. 1t was to see
whether he would believe the word
of God. 1t was the same way in the
temptations of Job. He was tempted
to impatience, but he never murmured
at the will of God. God will try
every man whether he be faithful,
and Satan will tempt him to his de-
struction if he can. This petition
10 hn tny tod
above what we can endure, or above
our strength. These trials are times
of danger, and we pray that we may
pass free through them.
Deliver us from evil signifies also
from the Evil One, the author and
source of all temptation to evil. Con-
slider the nature of temptation. 1t is
not mere abstract thing, but per-
sonal agency We are personally
tempted by a personal tempter. This
world in which we live appears to
most men all that exists; but if we
had faith to see beyond it we should
be conscious of the presence of an
infinite. omniscient and omnipotent
God, Whose Presence always encom-
passed and enveloped us; and under
Him, angels and created spirits
charged with the agency and minis
tration in His kingdom; and angels
of evil-fallen, perverted spirits
nevertheless personal, and always in
activity to destroy the souls of men.
There is nothing Satan desires more
than that we should disbelieve in his
existence. A secret enemy not seen
is more to be feared and dreaded than
an open one. Such is Satan, and he
desires to be Knocked, laughed at, that
men may lose the fear of his existence
and say: There's no God and no
devil" But there is this personal
spirit of evil always in activity to
tempt us. He tempts us one by one.
He tempts us sometimes to be proud,
sometimes to abase ourselves; some
times to be falsely charitable, some
times to be selfish He varies his
temptation, not only to our character,
but to our mood. Our Divine Lord
was tempted by Satan three times,
in order that the veil Of this invisible
world should be drawn aside for our
instruction. We are not all subject
to temptation and yet temptation
may be said to be universal. Satan
is the god of this world, the prince
of this earth, and pervades the world
in its corrupt habits, sins and lusts
which like miasma covers the

SENIOR PLAY TONIGAr

The senior play. entitled '-The Scarecrow' will be given at the Mesa opera house this evening. There has been a. splendid advance seat sale and the young folks are assured of a splendid house this evening not WIthstanding the fact that the de- pate now going on at the taberna cle IS drawing record crowds for this section of the country. The Scare crow IS comedy pure and simple and is replete with ridiculous situa- tions which come out very success fully so that the curtain goes down on the last act leaving the audience with a very satisfactory opinion of the affair. It is exceptionally well present according to those who have had peep at the final rehearsaIs and will no doubt merit splendid patronage this evening.
