God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
When the reality of sin and its radical effects on the whole man are bypassed the idea takes over that it simply takes a decision for Christ to bring about the new birth. A decision for Christ is all that is needed. This is “easy-believism,” in which repentance from sin is sidelined. Those who make a decision receive a pronouncement that they are saved. This proves premature. False converts are the outcome. The theory of the carnal Christian has been invented in order to accommodate those who have made a decision but who bear no marks of the new birth.
My child, trust firmly in the Lord, and do not fear the judgment of men when conscience tells you that you are upright and innocent. For it is good and blessed to suffer such things, and they will not weigh heavily on the humble heart that trusts in God rather than itself. Many men say many things, and therefore little faith is to be put in them. Likewise, it is impossible to satisfy all men. Although Paul tried to please all in the Lord, and became all things to all men, yet he made little of their opinions. He labored abundantly for the edification and salvation of others, as much as lay in him and as much as he could, but he could not escape being sometimes judged and despised by others. Therefore, he committed all to God who knows all things.
Preheat the oven to 325°. Line 30 muffin cups with paper liners. In a large
mixing bowl, beat together the eggs, sugar, evaporated milk, milk and
vegetable oil. Sift together baking powder, salt and flour. GRadually add
the flour mixture to the egg mixture, beating until well combined. Add the
extracts and poppy seeds, stirring only until well combined. Using a 1/3
cup measure, pour the batter into the muffin cups. Bake for 25-30 minutes
or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
