God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
To properly evaluate the place of good works in the Christian life, we must understand that grace maintains the value of God’s children apart from any merit of their own; but we must also understand that God uses our obedience to promote our good and His glory. By our accomplishments, God works His holy purposes in our lives, provides us with many temporal blessings and, most of all, fulfills our Spirit-instilled longing to honor God with all our heart, soul, mind, and might (cf. Deut. 6:5; Matt. 22:37). While we must be careful not to define blessing only in terms of material possessions or earthly ease, we must also embrace the promise that God “rewards those who earnestly seek Him” (Heb. 11:6).
I do believe and confess that Christ’s condemnation is my absolution, that His crucifying is my deliverance, His descending into hell is my ascending into heaven, His death is my life, His blood is my cleansing and purging, by whom only I am washed, purified and cleansed from all my sins, so that I neither receive nor believe any other purgatory, either in this world or in the other, whereby I am purged, but only the blood of Jesus Christ, by which all are purged and made clean forever.

Chop the larger pieces of chow chow in half or drain the mixed fruit salad.
Place 4 tablespoons of the water in a cup and stand it in a sauce pan of
hot water. Shower the gelatine into the cup and heat, stirring, until the
gelatine has dissolved. Cool. Heat the remaining water with milk, sugar to
taste, and almond essence. Stir until the sugar has dissolved. Stir in the
gelatine. Pour into a shallow, lightly oiled cake tin and cool until set.
Cut the almond cream into triangular bite-sized pieces. Place these in a
serving bowl with the fruit and combine very gently. Serve very cold.
Note: Chow Chow is Chinese preserved fruit which can be bought in shops
specializing in Chinese groceries.
