We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

It is common to hear people saying on their deathbeds, “I only want the Lord to forgive me my sins, and take me to rest.” But those who say such things forget that the rest of heaven would be utterly useless if we had no heart to enjoy it! What could an unsanctified man do in heaven, if by any chance he got there? Let that question be fairly looked in the face, and fairly answered. No man can possibly be happy in a place where he is not in his element, and where all around him is not congenial to his tastes, habits, and character. When an eagle is happy in an iron cage, when a sheep is happy in the water, when an owl is happy in the blaze of noonday sun, when a fish is happy on the dry land - then, and not till then, will I admit that the unsanctified man could be happy in heaven.

What do we mean by the word “Incarnation?” The idea is found in several texts which speak of Jesus as “coming in the flesh” (1 Jn. 4:2; 2 Jn. 7), being “sent in the flesh” (Rom. 8:3), “appearing in the flesh” (1 Tim. 3:16); He also “suffered in the flesh” (1 Pet. 4:1), “died in the flesh” (1 Pet. 3:18), made peace by abolishing “in the flesh the enmity” (Eph. 2:15), and “made reconciliation in the body of His flesh” (Col. 1:21-22). In sum, “the Word became flesh” (John 1:14). Thus, by the Incarnation we mean that the eternal Word or second person of the Trinity became a man or assumed human flesh at a point in time, yet without ceasing to be God.

    INSTRUCTIONS

    DIPPING SAUCE
Published by Sydney Morning Herald
After marinating in rice wine and ginger, these prawns get a quick steam
before being tossed with salt, garlic and chilli
Do not peel prawns, but devein by hooking out the black intestinal tract
with a thin bamboo skewer.
Place in a shallow heat-proof bowl with grated ginger and rice wine and rub
to coat the shells. Leave for one hour, tossing occasionally. transfer bowl
to steamer and steam over simmering water for five minutes, or until prawn
meat turns white. Remove and drain, and dry prawns with paper towel. Heat
wok with salt, garlic and chilli (no oil) over medium heat. Add prawns and
toss until hot and well coated, with salt. Serve with dipping sauce.
Dipping Sauce: Heat oil until it starts to smoke, then remove from heat and
allow to cool. Mix cooked oil with dark and light soy, ginger and chilli
and serve in small dipping bowls
Words of Warning........ A Prawn is a big shrimp, though I think US calls
them all shrimps.I would suggest not less than 4" long.
The Australian Tablespoon is 20mL vs 15mL US, NZ and UK, so for you
foreigners (<bg>) I have placed in brackets the adjusted amount you should
use. (Don't ask me why some idiot decided we would be different)
