We Love God!

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

Justification goes beyond forgiveness. Not only are we forgiven because of Christ, but God also declares us righteous because of Christ. God requires two things of us: punishment for our sins and perfection in our lives. Our sins must be punished, and our lives must be righteous. But we cannot bear our own punishment (Ps. 49:7-8), and we cannot provide our own righteousness. “None is righteous; no, not one” (Rom. 3:10). Therefore, God, out of His immeasurable love for us, provided His own Son to do both. Christ bears our punishment, and Christ performs our righteousness. And when we receive Christ (John 1:12), all of His punishment and all of His righteousness is counted as ours (Rom. 4:4-6; 5:1, 19; 8:1; 10:4; 2 Cor. 5:21; Phil. 3:8-9).
John Piper

This is God allowing Himself to be God. This is God in His own freewill rightly exercising sovereignty over a creation that belongs exclusively to Him. This is saying God’s sovereignty tops man’s freewill. This is God in His mercy choosing to not allow the whole world to perish, but rather calling some to Himself entirely on the basis of His grace.

INGREDIENTS

1 Container (16 oz) frozen strawberries with sugar
1 pk (16 oz) frozen rhubarb, cut up (no sugar added – plain)
1 pk Strawberry ( or other "red") jello; I use sugar free

INSTRUCTIONS

Dump frozen rhubarb and frozen strawberries in saucepan and simmer on very
low heat til all is defrosted and mixed together. Add jello. Cool. Puree in
food processor or, if you have one of those electric hand blenders that you
can put right in the pot, use that. Chill. It will not jell like jello, but
is more the consistency of applesauce. Easy and Good.
