The standard of practical holy living has been so low among Christians that very often the person who tries to practice spiritual disciplines in everyday life is looked upon with disapproval by a large portion of the Church. And for the most part, the followers of Jesus Christ are satisfied with a life so conformed to the world, and so like it in almost every respect, that to a casual observer, there is no difference between the Christian and the pagan.

INGREDIENTS

3	c	All-purpose flour
2 1/2	ts	Baking powder
1	c	Golden yellow brown sugar, (not dark brown)
1	c	Butter or margarine
1	c	Raisins
1	c	Milk

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large bowl stir together flour, baking powder and sugar. Cut in butter
until the mixture is like coarse meal. Mix raisins evenly through dry
ingredients. Add milk and stir until sticky dough forms. Divide dough into
3 equal portions. With floured hands and on a floured surface, pat each
into a circle about 3/4 to 1 inch thick. With a sharp knife, cut each dough
circle into 6 wedges. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375 F and
bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the centre of one comes
out clean.
Note: I find that sometimes a little more or a little less milk may be
needed, probably related to the moisture content of the flour. Leave space
between these since they tend to spread a little while baking.
