God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Often our misunderstanding of God's Word is due not to innocent intellectual slips or lack of information, but rather to a deep refusal to submit to God's demands. A person who intends to manage his own affairs, maintain his pride, and secure esteem and glory from his fellow human beings will twist the words of Jesus to support his own self-esteem. The evil of the human heart precedes and gives rise to many of our apparently intellectual misunderstandings of Scripture.
If Jesus Christ made the complete atonement for our sin, how can we choose another option and believe it is a viable option in God’s eyes? How can we assume His work was incomplete and seek to supplement it with our own works? How can we in any way believe that we can merit our salvation in whole or part and take glory (to some degree) for what we have attained and thus rob Him of the complete glory that is due His name?
The delicious crumb topping makes these muffins taste like miniature coffee
cakes. Good at tea time and also for brunch. Cool at least 1 hour before
serving.
Topping
1/2 cup chopped walnuts 1/4 cup all-purpose flour 3 tablespoons granulated
sugar 2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature 1/4 teaspoon ground
cinnamon
Batter
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 cup granulated sugar 2 teaspoons baking
powder 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon
salt 2 large eggs 1 cup sour cream 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted 1 cup
diced unpeeled apple, preferably a tart apple such as Granny Smith or
Greenings
Heat oven to 375 F. Grease muffin cups or use foil baking cups.
Put streusel topping ingredients into a medium-size bowl. Mix with a fork,
then crumble with fingers until mixture looks like chopped walnuts.
To make the muffin batter, thoroughly mix fllour, sugar, baking powder,
cinnamon, allspice, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
Break eggs into another bowl. Add sour cream and melted butter, and whisk
until well blended. Stir in diced apple.
Pour egg mixture over flour mixture and fold in just until dry ingredients
are moistened.
Scoop batter into muffin cups. Top each muffin with about 2 teaspoons of
the streusel topping.
Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until browned. A toothpick inserted into the
center should come out clean. Remove from pans and let cool at least 1 hour
before serving.
