When the reality of sin and its radical effects on the whole man are bypassed the idea takes over that it simply takes a decision for Christ to bring about the new birth. A decision for Christ is all that is needed. This is “easy-believism,” in which repentance from sin is sidelined. Those who make a decision receive a pronouncement that they are saved. This proves premature. False converts are the outcome. The theory of the carnal Christian has been invented in order to accommodate those who have made a decision but who bear no marks of the new birth.

INGREDIENTS

3	lb	Veal or beef bones, sawed into 2" pieces
2	lb	Stew beef, cut into; 1 1/2 inch cubes
2		Unpeeled onions; quartered
2		Carrots; halved
2		Ribs celery; halved
4		Unpeeled garlic cloves
6		Long parsley sprigs
1	ts	Salt
1/2	ts	Dried thyme; crumbled
1		Bay leaf

INSTRUCTIONS

Spread the bones and the beef in a flameproof roasting pan and roast them
in a preheated 400 oven for 25 minutes. Add the onions and the carrots,
roast the mixture, stirring once or twice, for 30 minutes more, or until it
is browned well. Transfer contents with a slotted spoon to a stockpot or
kettle.  Pour off any fat from the pan, add 2 cups water, and deglaze the
pan over high heat, scraping up the brown bits. Add the liquid to the pot
with 14 cups of cold water and bring the liquid to a boil, skimming the
froth. Add 1/2 cup cold water and bring the mixture to a simmer, skimming
the froth. Add the celery, the garlic, the parsley, the salt, the thyme,
and the bay leaf and simmer the mixture for 4 hours. If a more concentrated
flavor is desired, boil the stock until it is reduced to the desired
concentration. Strain the stock through a fine sieve into a bowl and let it
cool to warm. Chill the stock and remove the fat. Makes about 8 cups.
