First, there is no biblical precedent or command regarding a public altar call. Whatever might be said for its use, we cannot resort to the Bible for support. Jesus nor Paul, nor any other early Christian leader used it. Did Jesus ask His listeners to come to the front after He preached the Sermon on the Mount? Did Paul say, “Every head bowed, every eye closed” as Luke quietly sang the invitation hymn on the Areopagus? Did Peter have seekers raise their hands as a sign of their interest in Christ at the end of the Pentecostal sermon?

INSTRUCTIONS

GLAZE
This recipe was in the Dallas Morning News recently. I have not tried them
yet but they sound good.
Put rack in center of oven. preheat oven to 375. Butter baking sheet and
set aside. Put flour, oats, sugar, cranberries, baking powder and baking
soda, salt and cinnamon in mixing bowl. Use fork to mix ingredients. Mix
buttermilk, butter and egg together in small dish. Add to flour mixture.
Use wooden spoon to mix just until flour mixture is moistened; dough will
be in clumps. Do not overmix. Gather lumps into a ball, compacting to hold
together. Dough will be moist, almost wet. Turn dough onto well-floured
board. Knead dough, folding and pressing dough back onto itself, until
dough holds together and is smooth, about 30 seconds. Pat dough into a 9
inch diameter circle, about 1/4 thick. Use a 3 inch round cutter or clean
empty tuna can to cut 9 circles, reworking any scraps. Place scones 1 1/2
inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Brush tops with glaze and bake until
tops are lightly golden, about 16 minutes. Makes 9 servings. For the GLAZE,
mix 1 large egg and 1/2 teasp. salt with fork until frothy. Posted to
