Scrambled Eggs With Cumin And Fragrant Herbs

We learn from Paul in Ephesians 5:31-32 that, from the beginning, manhood and womanhood existed to represent or dramatize God’s relation to His people and then Christ’s relation to His bride, the church. In this drama, the man represents God or Christ and is to love his wife as Christ loved the church. The woman represents God’s people or the church. And sexual union in the covenant of marriage represents pure, undefiled, intense heart-worship. That is, God means for the beauty of worship to be dramatized in the right ordering of our sexual lives.

INGREDIENTS

6		Eggs
1	t	Kosher salt
2	T	Light vegetable oil
2		Onions, peeled cut into 3/4
		inch pieces
1/2	t	Ground roasted cumin seeds
1	T	Finely chopped fresh
		Coriander leaves *
1		To 2 green chilies, seeded
		and sliced optional

INSTRUCTIONS

Break the eggs into a small bowl, add salt, and beat slightly to mix.
Do not overbeat, as eggs should not be foamy or frothy. Beat the
shortening or oil in a frying pan (9-10 inches in diameter), and add
onions. Over medium-low heat, saute onions until they are translucent
but still firm and crisp (about 3-4 minutes). Reduce heat to low, and
add the beaten eggs. Let the eggs settle in the pan for 5 seconds.
Then, using a fork, begin pushing the egg toward the center of the  pan
so that it cooks like a thick cake. When most of the egg has
coagulated, turn it gently and cook the other side. (Don't worry if  it
breaks, as the finished dish will, in fact, look like little cakes  of
scrambled egg studded with onions.) Continue stirring and turning
until the eggs are fully cooked (about 3 minutes). Do not let them
brown. Turn off heat, and transfer to a warm serving platter. Serve
sprinkled with roasted cumin, chopped coriander leaves and green
chilies.    To roast the cumin, add to a dry, preheated, heavy frying
pan, and  cook until the seeds turn a dark brown. Grind fine, and
you're ready  to go. Source: Classic Indian Cooking, by Julie Sahni

At what point, then, is a child capable of understanding the gospel, repenting from sin, and savingly trusting in Christ? Again, Scripture gives no specific age limit. In our experience, however, we have found that most children do not really begin to objectively evaluate their own thoughts until they reach junior high. Before then, they usually feel little concern over the contradictory values to which they cling. Seldom during elementary years do they conscientiously think about and spiritually evaluate life’s demands independently of their parents. This does not mean that all young children are incapable of committing the rest of their lives to Christ and being indwelt by the Holy Spirit. However, prior to adolescence, few children truly appreciate the significance of their separation from God, and few have sufficient mental sophistication to project far enough into the future to commit “the rest of their lives” to anything.
