We Love God!

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

Three main tendencies that can draw our hearts away from the centrality of the gospel: 1. Legalism, which means basing our relationship with God on our performance. 2. Condemnation, which means being more focused on our sin than on God’s grace. 3. Subjectivism, which means basing our view of God on our changing feelings and emotions.
C.J. Mahaney

And we know how necessary it was that Christ should come forth as God and man; for salvation cannot be expected in any other way than from God; and Christ must confer salvation on us, and not only be its minister. And then, as He is God, He justifies us, regenerates us, illuminates us into a hope of eternal life; to conquer sin and death is doubtless what only can be effected by divine power. Hence Christ, except He was God, could not have performed what we had to expect from Him. It was also necessary that He should become man, that he might unite us to Himself; for we have no access to God, except we become the friends of Christ; and how can we be so made, except by a brotherly union?

INGREDIENTS

1 Whole young chicken, about 3
1/4 to 3 1/2 pounds
2 t Sea salt
2 t Freshly ground black pepper
2 T Olive oil
1 Vidalia onion, diced
3 Cloves garlic, finely
chopped
2 Lemons, juice and zest
reserved
1/2 c Dry white wine
1/2 c Hot chicken stock, up to 1
1/2 lb Baby carrots with green tops
attached
1/2 lb Pencil asparagus
5 T Butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh thyme leaves

INSTRUCTIONS

Cut the chicken into 1/8-ths, separating the wings, legs, thighs, and
breasts, and season the chicken parts with salt and pepper.  Heat the
olive oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the chicken,  skin side
down, and brown well before turning to brown the meat side.  When the
chicken is well browned, add the onions, and cook until  golden brown.
Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, add lemon juice  and white wine,
bring quickly to a boil, reduce heat to a low simmer,  cover the pan
with a tight fitting lid and cook for 5 to 8 minutes.  Add 1 cup of
chicken stock and continue to cook, covered, for an  additional 15
minutes, or until the chicken is completely cooked. Add  additional
chicken stock if the pan dries out too quickly.  While the chicken is
cooking, peel the carrots and place them in a  saucepan with 1/4 cup
water and a tablespoon butter. Season with salt  and pepper and cook
the carrots for 2 to 3 minutes over medium heat  and set aside. Wash
the asparagus and cut off any woody stem  attached. Put the asparagus
into a pot with 1/4 cup water and a  tablespoon butter and salt and
pepper. Cook over low heat for 2  minutes and set aside.  When the
chicken is fully cooked, remove from the saute pan and place  on a
platter. Carefully ladle off any grease that has accumulated on  the
surface of the stock and swirl in the remaining 3 tablespoons  butter
to give a smooth silky finish.  Yield: 4 to 6 servings  Recipe by:
