God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
[Baptism by immersion is] the usual form of the original meaning of the Greek baptidzein and baptismos; from the analogy of John’s baptism in the Jordan; from the apostle’s comparison of the sacred rite with the miraculous passage of the Red Sea, with the escape of the ark from the flood, with a cleansing and refreshing bath, and with burial and resurrection; finally, from the general custom of the ancient church, which prevails in the East to this day.
Most men are not satisfied with the permanent output of their lives. Nothing can wholly satisfy the life of Christ within His followers except the adoption of Christ’s purpose toward the world He came to redeem. Fame, pleasure and riches are but husks and ashes in contrast with the boundless and abiding joy of working with God for the fulfillment of His eternal plans. The men who are putting everything into Christ’s undertaking are getting out of life its sweetest and most priceless rewards (John Campbell White).
1. Measure flour and place in a large bowl. Cut cold shortening into 1"
cubes and add to flour. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut shortening
into flour until it is the consistency of coarse meal. Make a well in
centre.
2. Place egg and vinegar in a measuring cup. Add ice water to bring it up
to 1 cup. Whisk to break up egg and blend with water. Add liquid to flour
mixture all at once. Then, using a fork, work until all dry ingredients are
moist. Using your hands, gather dough into a firm ball. Do not over- mix
or knead dough. Cut dough into 4 equal pieces.
3. Wrap each piece of dough individually and refrigerate until well
chilled, at least 30 minutes but preferably overnight. Well-wrapped pastry
will keep well inthe refrigerator for a least a week or in the freezer for
several months.
