We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

This, then, is how Jesus made atonement – how He paid it all. The punishment which was due to us He voluntarily received. The death which was the wages of our sin He underwent. The stripes with which we deserved to be beaten fell upon His willing back. The chastisement which was owing us was borne by Him. The price we would have paid by endless suffering He paid by an infinite sacrifice. It should have been I who cried out, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” It should have been He who said: “I am persuaded that nothing shall separate me from the love of God.” Because Jesus paid it all, it was He who was forsaken and we who never shall be. Because He drank the full cup of divine wrath, we shall never taste it. “There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus.”
John Gerstner

When people know that we love them, they will accept what we say, even when it has to be a rebuke. It disposes them to listen when otherwise they might be cautious, apprehensive, and suspicious. “Love me,” said Augustine, “and then say anything to me and about me you like.” Richard Baxter’s flock used to say, “We take all things well from one who always and wholly loves us” (Derek Prime and Alistair Begg).

1) Preheat the oven to 325F. With a sharp knife, trim all the skin and all
but a thin layer of fat from the ham. (Save the skin and fat for dishes
like Black-eyed Peas.) With the tip of the knife, cut a very light diamond
pattern into all surfaces of the ham. Rub a light coating of sugar into the
ham. If you like, brush the ham lightly with the food coloring. 2) Bake the
ham on a rack in a roasting pan until well browned and warmed through, 45
to 60 minutes. Let the ham rest 5 to 10 minutes before carving. 3) Carve
the ham into thin slices with a thin slicing knife. Remove any leftover
meat from the bone before storing. Save the bone and any trimming for soups
and vegetables.
