Bowl Of Compassion Vegetarian Chili

But the animal sacrifices weren’t that substitute. No person was ever delivered from divine judgment by the death of any animal. The repeated sacrifice of animals was simply a continual symbol of the fact that God does deliver by the death of an innocent substitute, but no animal was ever satisfactory to God and so the sacrifices went on and on and on and on by the millions. And the people waited for a sacrifice that would be satisfactory to God, to which all those unsatisfactory sacrifices pointed. That day came on that Friday when God chose His lamb and offered Him as a sacrifice, a substitute for sinners, and poured out His wrath on that innocent substitute.

INSTRUCTIONS

Saute onions, garlic, and peppers in oil until onions are  translucent.
Add spices and simmer for two minutes. Stir in remaining  ingredients,
adding the TVP last. You can adjust the amount of TVP to  obtain the
desired texture and consistency. You can substitute beer  for the water
for a more unique flavor. One jalapeno makes a mild  chili (two were
used for the cookoff). Simmer from four to six hours.  It's even better
the next day.  This was the Third Place Winner and Best of Show trophy
winner at the  4th Annual Lone Star Vegetarian Chili Cookoff held in
Dallas in  October. It was submitted by the Animal Connection of Texas
members  Mitch and Debbie Thompson, Cam Reilly and Cheryl Witchgers.
