We Love God!

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

In addition to the role model of Jesus, men also need good role models form other men. David Murrow in his book, Why Men Hate Going to Church said, “You cannot have a thriving church without a core of men who are true followers of Christ. If men are dead, the church is dead.” He goes on to say, “Men don’t follow programs; they follow men. A woman may choose a church because of the programs it offers, but a man is looking for another man he can follow.” Men are not born with an understanding of maleness. Ultimately we should be learning it from our fathers and while that is not always the case, we should always be seeing it modeled before us by other men in the church (1 Cor. 11:1).

What then should we say when we are trying to lead someone to Christ? I think a better picture is simply what the New Testament uses as its normative word - πίστις/πιστεύω. The noun form (πίστις) can be translated 'faith,' 'belief,' or 'trust.' The verb can be translated 'I believe,' 'I have faith,' 'I trust.' In some contexts the object of belief is emphasized (namely, Christ); in other contexts, the kind of belief is emphasized (namely, a genuine trust, an embracing). Thus, πίστις has this twofold force of content and conviction. To be saved, one must have the right object of faith (content); and one must truly put his trust entirely in that object (conviction).

<mmx900@COVENTRY.AC.UK>  (Adapted from Little Meals by Rozanne Gold,
source Seattle Times)  Wash and dry asparagus.  Place stalks in a
baking pan large enough to  hold them in one layer, and gently rub them
with 1/2 tablespoon olive  oil. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt over the
asparagus and bake in a  preheated 425 degree oven for 12 to 15
minutes, depending upon the  thickness of the stalks. when cool enough
to handle, cut into  1/2-inch pieces.  In a generous amount of salted
boiling water, cook the fettuccine  until al dente.  Drain, place in a
bowl and toss with 1/2 tablespoon  olive oil.  Pour wine into a large
skillet or pan.  Add shallots.  Reduce over  medium heat to one half.
Wash lemons well with soap and water, rinse  and dry. Add grated rind
and juice from 2 lemons to the wine.  Simmer  2 minutes.  Add cream.
Bring to a boil, then lower heat and add 1/3 cup cheese,  1/4 teaspoon
salt and cayenne pepper.  Simmer slowly, whisking  constantly, about 4
minutes, or until sauce begins to thicken. Cut  cold butter into small
pieces and add to the sauce, cooking 1 minute.  Add asparagus, pasta
and 2 tablespoons cheese. Toss until pasta is  thoroughly coated with
sauce and heated through.  Divide pasta evenly in heated plates or soup
bowls.  Sprinkle with  grated peel from remaining lemon, chives and
mint.  EAT-L DIGEST 17 JUNE 1996  From the EAT-L recipe list.
