We Love God!

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

The justification for works on the NCT (New Covenant Theology) seems to be at least fivefold. First, it has seemed to some of us that if the New Testament is the apex of God’s revelation, then we ought to read the earlier parts of Scripture in its light. The point seems self-evident, but for some of us it was nevertheless hard to arrive at. Second, the NT is very explicit in making believers “slaves” of Jesus Christ. The implications of this are far reaching; here we simply note the fact. Third, a nagging question arises when OT law becomes too prominent in discussions of Christian morals and ethics. The question is: Which is the higher revelation of the character of God, the Ten Commandments or the person, work and teaching of Jesus Christ?... A fourth thing calls for an understanding of NCT: the renewed emphasis in our day on exegetical and biblical theology as a source of systematic. This has inevitably called into question the way Christians read their creeds and confessions. Finally, in one of the odd providences that the Lord sometimes sends our way, those who defend New Covenant Theology find themselves falling in with an emphasis that has been prominent throughout church history.

We judge other people for a reason. There is something in us that fuels this unbiblical response – pride! Pride wants to look down upon others. Pride wants to dethrone others to make ourselves appear more spiritual. Pride wants to have others answering to us. Pride wants other people admiring our actions. Pride wants to prioritize self over the value and dignity of another individual. So in an effort to justify ourselves, we find it very easy to condemn others. However, kingdom citizens are broken in spirit (Mt. 5:3). It is impossible to be broken in spirit and judge others at the same time.

INSTRUCTIONS

tsp    cornstarch (or arrowroot) 1/2 tsp sugar (optional) 3 tblsp  cold
water 3 tblsp soy or shoyu sauce 1 tblsp sesame seed oil  1 lb.    firm
tofu 3 tblsp oil 1 tsp minced garlic 1 tsp grated fresh  ginger root 2
scallions, diced (or 4 tblsp diced onions) 1/2 tsp salt  Drain the
tofu, then cut into 1 X 1 X 1/2 inch pieces.  Drain again.  Heat a
skillet or wok.  Add the oil and heat about 30 seconds.  Add  the
garlic, ginger, scallions and salt. Stir fry about 30 seconds.  Add the
tofu. Stir fry about 2 minutes.  Mix together the cornstarch, sugar,
water, soy sauce and sesame oil.  Add the mixture to the skqillet and
stir well, then cook about  another 30 seconds.  Serve with or over
rice or noodles.  Helpful hints:  Ginger root is wonderful, but may not
keep well in the refrigerator.  Keep it wrapped in plastic in the
freezer and pull it out and grate  as you need it.  It will keep a long
time and is still delicious.  Scallions are best, but regular onions
will do in a pinch.  The original recipe called for Worchester sauce
and soy sauce, but I  substitute all soy, because, as well all know,
Worchester contains  anchovies. Converted by MMCONV vers. 1.40  From
