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

Would the Holy Spirit, who authored the Scriptures for the purpose of their being our infallible guide, promote them as a grab-bag of all kinds of meanings?
Jim Elliff

There has been a long tradition which sees the mission of the Church primarily as obedience to a command. It has been customary to speak of 'the missionary mandate.' This way of putting the matter is certainly not without justification, and yet it seems to me that it misses the point. It tends to make mission a burden rather than a joy, to make it part of the law rather than part of the gospel. If one looks at the New Testament evidence one gets another impression. Mission begins with a kind of explosion of joy. The news that the rejected and crucified Jesus is alive is something that cannot possibly be suppressed. It must be told. Who could be silent about such a fact? The mission of the Church in the pages of the New Testament is more like the fallout from a vast explosion, a radioactive fallout which is not lethal but life-giving.

have no moisture to mix the dough.) CYCLE: sweet, white; no timer SETTING:

NOTES : Pack cherries tightly in a measuring cup. You may try to double
the yeast for a taller loaf. This is a low rising, dense loaf.
