Black Eyed Pea And Squash Soup

Membership in a local church does not mean that you are part of the body of Christ. Without Christ, church membership means nothing. Hell is filled with people who were church members. Before you respond to the challenge of church membership, you must make sure you know Jesus Christ, who is “head over all things to the church” (Ephesians 1:22). Your greatest need in life is not to be on the membership roll of a church; it is to be made right with God by the One who died for the church, who created the church, who loves the church, and who is returning someday for His true church.

other ingredients while the peas  cook.  Place the soaked or fresh
black-eyed peas in a saucepan and cover with  water by at least 2".
Bring to a boil, turn the heat way down, and  simmer, partially

butter in a soup pot or Dutch oven. Add the onion, mustard,  half the
garlic, half the ginger, and half the salt. Saute over med  heat for
about 5 min. Stir in all the mushrooms and saute for a few  minutes,
then ad the sherry. Cover and cook over med heat for about  10 min.
Add half the squash and all the water. Bring to a boil, then lower  the
heat to a simmer, and cover. Cook for about 10 min, then add the
cinnamon, lemon juice and vinegar along with the black-eyed peas, the
remaining garlic, ginger, squash, and salt. Cover again, and cook  over
low heat until the most recently added squash is just tender,  about 20
min.  Season liberally with freshly ground black pepper, and taste to
see  if it needs more salt. Serve hot, topped with very finely minced
parsley and/or scallions, if desired.  Yield: 6 - 8 servings  Prep

The doctrine of Lordship Salvation views saving faith neither as passive nor fruitless. The faith that is the product of regeneration, the faith that embraces the atoning sacrifice of Jesus on the cross energizes a life of love and obedience and worship. The controversy is not a dispute about whether salvation is by faith only or by faith plus works. All agree that we are saved by grace through faith, apart from works (Eph. 2:8-10). But the controversy is about the nature of the faith that saves. According to Lordship Salvation, Sola fides iustificat (faith alone justifies), sed non fides quae est sola (but not the faith which is alone).
