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

1. The Father is called God (John 6:27; 20:17; 1 Cor. 8:6; Gal. 1:1; Eph. 4:6; Phil. 2:11; 1 Pet. 1:2). 2. Jesus Christ, the Son is declared to be God. His deity is proven by the divine names given to Him, by His works that only God could do (upholding all things, Col. 1:17; creation, Col. 1:16, John 1:3; and future judgment, John 5:27), by His divine attributes (eternality, John 17:5; omnipresence, Matt. 28:20; omnipotence, Heb. 1:3; omniscience, Matt. 9:4), and by explicit statements declaring His deity (John 1:1; 20:28; Titus 2:13; Heb. 1:8). 3. The Holy Spirit is recognized as God. By comparing Peter’s comments in Acts 5:3 and 4, we see that in lying to the Holy Spirit (vs. 3), Ananias was lying to God (vs. 4). He has the attributes which only God can possess like omniscience (1 Cor. 2:10) and omnipresence (1 Cor. 6:19), and He regenerates people to new life (John 3:5-6, 8; Tit. 3:5), which must of necessity be a work of God for only God has the power of life. Finally, His deity is evident by the divine names used for the Spirit as “the Spirit of our God,” (1 Cor. 6:11), which should be understood as “the Spirit, who is our God.”

Don’t forget that God is the source of wisdom. “For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding” (Pro. 2:6). And though the book of Proverbs relentlessly calls us to pursue wisdom, we must remember that wisdom remains a divine gift. If we are to seek the wisdom that leads to joy and life and satisfaction and success and meaning, we must turn to God, as He is the source of all true wisdom. Seeking for wisdom is seeking for God, these two pursuits are one and the same and must never be separated (Gen. 41:39; Rom. 16:27; 1 Cor. 3:10).

I want to share a really yummy recipe I adapted from Laxmi's
Vegetarian Kitchen by Laxmi Hiremath. ( It was practically fatfree to
begin with.) I left out the jalapenos and salt for my family but  tried
them with heat for myself...they're good either way!  Preheat oven to
400 degrees Combine kofta ingredients and mix  thoroughly, form into 1
inch balls and bake 1 inch apart non-stick  baking sheet until golden,
about 30 min. Meanwhile, blend together  1st 5 gravy ingredients in a
blender with 1 cup water. In sauce pan  on med-high put mustard seeds
and heat until they start to pop, then  add blended ingredients. cook 5
min and add the rest of the  ingredients. Simmer for 10 min. Cool
koftas for 5 min. Pour gravy  into a serving dish, add koftas and serve
hot.  I served this with a basmati rice green pea pilaf and a vegie
curry.  It was so yummy, my family scarffed them up before anything
else!  Posted to fatfree digest by Carolyn_Conner@broder.com (Carolyn
