We Love God!

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

On the one hand, [we] are called to abandon bitterness, to be forbearing, to have a forgiving stance even where the repentance of the offending party is conspicuous by its absence; on the other hand, their God-centered passion for justice, their concerns for God's glory, ensure that the awful odium of sin is not glossed over.
D.A. Carson

The Holy Spirit used four Greek words that are transliterated “baptism” or like derivatives in our English Bibles. In its context, each word gives the impression of immersion. Whether it is the baptism of trials or the baptism into the church or ceremonial washings or dipping bread into a bowl of oil, these words in the Bible and in other secular Greek writings of the time imply immersion. For instance, the verb Bapto in every usage means “to dip” or “to dye.” The word was used in common language when items were completely engulfed in a liquid to produce a change in color. Therefore, all Greek lexicons give the primary meanings of these 4 words as “dip,” “plunge” or “immerse.” As a matter of fact, the six Greek words that could be translated “pour” or “sprinkle” are never used in connection with water baptism.

2 Cloves garlic, crushed
2 Bay leaf

INSTRUCTIONS

MARINADE
STEW
Mix all the marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Add the meat to marinade,
stir well to ensure that all the beef is coated. Leave meat in the marinade
for as long as possible. The secret of this dish lies in the time allowed
for marinading and the long, slow cooking that follows.
Place the meat, together with the marinade into a heavy casserole. Sift in
the flour. Add the tomatoes and mushrooms. Cover with the beef stock and
set to cook on lowest temperature possible, for two to three hours or until
the meat is tender. During cooking, taste for acidity and add a pinch or
two of sugar, if necessary.
A little cream may be added to the stew at the end of the cooking period,
if desired.
Serve with boiled potatoes.
