We Love God!

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

Under the New Covenant, however, it undergoes a subtle variation in that Christ sets Himself forward as the comprehensive Lord, a position that we understand can only be accorded to God Himself. The justification for this remarkable claim by Christ is twofold: first, by very nature He was God and second, His person as the God-man was awarded the full title “Lord” (i.e. Yahweh) upon the completion of His mission in this world (Phil. 2:9-11). We should not be surprised, then, to hear Him say, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me” (Matt. 28:18).
Tom Wells

There is but one point to be settled, “What says the word of God?” Do you believe the Bible? Then depend upon it, hell is real and true. It is a true as heaven, as true as justification by faith, as true as the fact that Christ died upon the cross. There is not a fact or doctrine which you may not lawfully doubt, if you doubt hell. Disbelieve hell, you unscrew, unsettle, and unpin everything in the Scripture. You may as well throw your Bible aside at once. From “no hell” to “no God” is but a series of steps. Do you believe the Bible? Then depend upon it, hell will have inhabitants.

    INGREDIENTS

    1 Onion; chopped
    2 Stalks celery; sliced
    2 Potatoes; scrubbed and diced
    3/4 c Split peas; rinsed
    2 Bay leaves
    6 c Water or vegetable stock; (I used half of each)
    2 md Zucchini; diced
    1 md Stalk broccoli; chopped
    4 c Spinach; chopped, (I used chard because I had some and no spinach)
    1/2 ts Basil
    1/4 ts Black pepper
    1 ts Salt

    INSTRUCTIONS

    I made this soup today. It tasted great - very satisfying and comforting,
too. It is from Jennifer Raymond's Peaceful Palate cookbook.
Jennifer's comments say that this soup is perfect for children (of any
age!) who won't eat vegetables. I agree, even though I love veggies.
Place the onion, celery, potatoes, split peas, and bay leaves in a large
pot with the water or stock and bring to a boil. Lower heat, cover and
simmer 1 hour.
Remove the bay leaves. Add the zucchini, broccoli, spinach, basil, and
black pepper. Simmer 20 minutes.
Transfer to a blender in several small batches and puree until completely
smooth, holding the lid on tightly. Return to the pot, add salt to taste,
and heat until steamy.
