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

The great, and glorious end for which God decreed the after-being of sin, is His own glory: and the ends subordinate thereunto are not a few. Particularly, God decreed the futurition of sin: 1. That He might have occasion of glorifying His infinite wisdom, love, and grace in the redemption and salvation of a company of lost sinners through the death and sufferings of His own dear Son. 2. That His patience and long suffering in bearing with and forbearing sinners, might be magnified, admired, and adored. 3. That He might be honoured and glorified by the faith and repentance of His people, and their walking humbly with Him. 4. That His justice might be illustriously displayed and glorified in the eternal damnation of reprobate sinners for their own sins and abominations, sin being the cause of their damnation, though not of their reprobation.

[We] must understand that Christianity is not served by mindlessness, but by the knowledge of God through the Word of God. Such knowledge engages our minds, stirs our hearts, and transforms our lives. This knowledge is personal. How is it fostered? By listening to what He says (the priority of preaching), by engaging Him in conversation (the emphasis on prayer), by spending time in His company (the need for a devotional life), and by being with others who know Him too (the need for gathered worship). This knowledge is progressive and dynamic, not static. At the end of our journey, we should still be exclaiming with Paul: “I want to know Christ” (1 Corinthians 2:2).

INSTRUCTIONS

Spray a large skillet with Pam or use a small amount of cooking oil
and thoroughly brown the ground beef.  Drain off all of the fat.  Stir
in garlic salt.  Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.  Slice the  french loaf
lengthwise using a sharp bread knife.  With clean hand,  scoop out the
center of the loaf leaving a 2" thick "shell" on top  and bottom.
Spread both sides of the split loaf with Russian Dressing**.  On
bottom half of loaf, spread out the sauteed hamburger.   Sprinkle  over
the swiss cheese.  Replace top of loaf and wrap the whole thing  in two
layers of aluminum foil.  Heat the loaf in the hot oven for
approximately 15 minutes.  Remove from oven and transfer to serving
platter.  Carefully unwrap  the loaf, avoiding steam.  Remove top layer
of bread and spread cole  slaw over hot hamburger mixture.  Replace top
and slice loaf  diagonally into five pieces.  Serving suggestions:
Since you've got a hot oven going anyway, this  sandwich is terrific
with oven-baked wedge fries with the skin left  on the potato.  Add a
tossed green salad.  RUSSIAN DRESSING: Stir ingredients together and
chill for at least  1/2 hour before using. Posted to Recipe Archive -
