We Love God!

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

The decree of God is founded in wisdom, Eph. 3:9-11, though we do not always understand it. It was formed in the depths of eternity, and is therefore eternal in the strictest sense of the word, Eph. 3:11. Moreover, it is effectual, so that everything that is included in it certainly comes to pass, Isa. 46:10. The plan of God is also unchangeable, because He is faithful and true, Job 28:13, 14; Isa. 46:10; Luke 22:22. It is unconditional, that is, its execution does not depend on any action of man but even renders such action certain, Acts 2:23; Eph. 2:8. Moreover, it is all-inclusive, embracing the good and the wicked actions of men, Eph. 2:10; Acts 2:28, contingent events, Gen. 50:20, the duration of man’s life, Job 14:5; Ps. 39:4, and the place of his habitation, Acts 17:26. With respect to sin it is permissive.
Louis Berkhof

Christian doctrine is unique in that it is an intellectual response to the historical activity and revelatory disclosure of God. Doctrine is rational reflection upon God’s saving activity in Jesus Christ. Foundational to the idea of “doctrine” is the fact that we need to be told what God is like. It is not ours to determine what kind of God we will believe and obey. It is God’s to determine to show Himself to us. Doctrine is our effort to articulate what He has made known. Doctrine is the divinely authorized attempt to describe God in accordance with how He has revealed Himself in creation, in history, in Jesus Christ and in the Scriptures. In doing so, doctrine also serves to expose false interpretations of reality, false concepts of God. It is the aim of doctrine to make sense of the individual’s and the church’s experience of God as He has made Himself known in Jesus Christ.

INSTRUCTIONS

           VEGETABLE MINESTRONE:
           HERBED COUSCOUS:
           SWORDFISH:
To make the vegetable minestrone, heat the oil in a large saucepan over
medium heat.  Add the garlic and cook just until it starts to sizzle; do
not brown.  Add the herbs, juice, stock and peper and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 3 minutes.  Set aside.
To make the couscous, combine the stock, pepper, herbs and oil in a small
saucepan and bring to a boil.  Add the couscous, mix well and remove from
the heat.  Cover tightly and allow to stand for at least 5 minutes, or
until all of the liquid has been absorbed.  Set aside.
Wash the swordfish and pat it dry.  Rub the surface with a little olive oil
and sprinkle with salt, freshly ground black pepper and herbs, if desired.
Cook over a charcoal grill or under a broiler just until it turns from
translucent to opaque, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.  Do not overcook or
the fish will become tough.
To serve, place a rounded 1/2 cup of couscous on each of 4 plates and top
with a piece of grilled swordfish.  Spoon the minestrone around each
serving, dividing it equally.  Garnish each serving with a sprig of fresh
thyme or rosemary, if desired.
