BLENDED JUICE 3 WE RESERVE e Meaning of Easier Is Discussed a! Kiwanis Meeting 'The True Meaning of Easter was told by elaboration on five points by the Rev. Kennetn Korby, pastor of St. Peter's Lu theran church, yesterday at the noon luncheon of Medford Ki wanis club. Easter means terror and fear, faith and freedom, joy and vic tory and hope, the minister said. It also means God is love, the pastor declared. Mr. Korby' spoke of Jesus as the Great Divider as well as the Great Unifer and said that "man will fall and be crushed or fall on Him and be saved." The pas tor brought out that Jesus said that all power is in His hands and that Christ was put to death but is alive. He stated that for a man not living under Christ and for Him, He is an enemy and to have Him alive strikes that man with terror. Describes Freedom The minister described free dom as that of being set free' from self seeking and guilt and set free "to be like God intend ed you to be in the beginning." He pointed to "One among us who has paid, for all our sins and guilt." Concerning love, Mr. Korby told of God's joy and delight in creating a man who serves other people. He spoke of love as a quality which stops serving it self and starts giving. The speak er stated that Christian hope is that, "despite' the fact of what we are and have been, God has dealt with our sins and those attached with Christ will be with him after they die." Mr. Korby brought out that the Christian joy is "the joy that life already is lived in victory" and that the Christian idea of victory is that "it already has been won in the resurrection."
