God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The source of my authority in this pulpit is not...my wisdom; nor is it a private revelation granted to me beyond the revelation of Scripture. My words have authority only insofar as they are the repetition, unfolding and proper application of the words of Scripture. I have authority only when I stand under authority. And our corporate symbol of that truth is the sound of your Bibles opening to the text. My deep conviction about preaching is that a pastor must show the people that what he is saying was already said or implied in the Bible. If it cannot be shown it has no special authority.
God’s Word is His supernatural power for accomplishing His supernatural work. That’s why our eloquence, innovations, and programs are so much less important than we think; that’s why we as pastors must give ourselves to preaching, not programs; and that’s why we need to be teaching our congregations to value God’s Word over programs. Preaching the content and intent of God’s Word is what unleashes the power of God on the people of God, because God’s power for building His people is in His Word, particularly as we find it in the Gospel (Rom. 1:16). God’s Word builds His church. So preaching His Gospel is primary (Mark Dever and Paul Alexander).
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking
soda and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir with a fork to blend and mix well. Add
the butter and, using you fingers as a pastry blender, work the butter and
flour together until the mixture looks like irregular crumbs. Add the
buttermilk and the chives. Mix only until the dry ingredients are
moistened. Gather the dough into a ball, pressing it to hold together and
turn it onto a lightly floured surface. Knead lightly about 12 times. Pat
the dough into a circle, keeping it about 1/2 to 3/4-inch thick. Use a
2-inch cookie cutter to cut rounds and place on a baking sheet. Bake about
10 minutes, or until the tops are lightly browned. Serve warm. Yield: 15
biscuits
