We have failed to understand that children and young people are not God-lovers until the Spirit changes them. They are dead to God. Our attempts at getting these young people to “pray the prayer” when they were small have not necessarily made them children of God. Their behavior belies the true state of their hearts. God has said that the only hope for them, therefore, is the regenerating work of the Spirit in the context of the preaching of the Word (James 1:18). However, our inadequate view of depravity and the inability of man has led us to resort instead to a greater confidence in entertainment to reach them and a minimizing of the use of the Word. If God has ordained that the Word and the Spirit are the only hope for these kids, then we should not avoid the means God has promised to bless.

Combine yeast, 1/4 c water and sugar and let stand until very foamy
Dissolve the salt in 1 C water and stir mixture into starter. Beast in the
yeast mixture, then the caraway seeds. Beat in the rye flour, about 1/2 C
at a time, then beat in gluten flour.
Spread 2 C of the white flour in a ring on a kneading surface and pour the
dough into center of ring. Mix roughly with dough scraper or spatula, then
knead just until thoroughly mixed, adding as much of the remaining white
flour as needed to make a medium-stiff dough.
Scrape kneading surface, dust it with flour, and knead the dough very
thoroughly until it is elastic and smooth. Form dough into ball, place in
ungreased bowl, cover and let rise until doubled in bulk, about an hour.
Punch dough down, form into two balls, cover with towel and let rest 20
minutes.  Sprinkle large baking sheet with cornmeal.  Form dough into balls
or oblong loaves, as desired. Place on baking sheet and let rise until 3/4
proofed.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees and place large pan containing 2 inches of hot
water on bottom shelf.  Brush loaves with glaze made of 1 tsp cornstarch
cooked in 2/3 C water until translucent (about 2-3 minutes), then cooled.
Slash cuts into loaves if desired.
Bake 15 minutes in center of oven; lower heat to 350, remove pan of water,
and bake for 30 minutes longer.  Then remove loaves from baking sheet and
place directly on oven shelves for 10 to 15 minutes, until there is a
hollow sound when you rap on the bottom. Loaves freeze very well. Improves
in flavor for at least 24 hours after baking.

A Message from our Provider:

“Time: A longing in man for reuniting with God.”

In considering the conflict between the sovereignty of God in election and the human responsibility, J.I. Packer writes: What is an antinomy? The Shorter Oxford Dictionary defines it as ';”a contradiction between conclusions which seem equally logical, reasonable or necessary.” For our purposes, however, this definition is not quite accurate; the opening words should read “an appearance of contradiction.” For the whole point of an antinomy – in theology, at any rate – is that it is not a real contradiction, though it looks like one. It is an apparent incompatibility between two apparent truths. An antinomy exists when a pair of principles stand side by side, seemingly irreconcilable, yet both undeniable.
