Caramel-glazed Apple Cake

This is a reading age – and as books are cheap, largely read, and easily procurable, the press has come to embrace a wider circle and to possess a greater influence on the public mind than any other medium of communication. The Christian press has spread itself in all directions, and exercises an influence scarcely inferior to that of the pulpit. Works, therefore, written by gracious men, whether living or dead, may be viewed as exercising a ministry of their own, running, as it were, parallel to that of the pulpit, and in harmony with it – but possessing the advantage of penetrating into places, and speaking on occasions where the voice of the living preacher cannot come, as well as of being accessible at all times, lying silently and unobtrusively on the table or the bookshelf, ready to be taken up or laid down at pleasure – and, if we have well chosen them, our trustiest friends and wisest counselors, who will always tell us the truth without fear and without flattery.

INSTRUCTIONS

Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar, then cut in the
butter. Beat in the egg and milk. 2. 375 oven. Line a 9x13" pan with a
single piece of foil, allowing the edges of the foil to hang over the
edges of the pan. Lightly butter the foil. 3. Spread the batter  evenly
in the pan. Arrange the apple slices of the batter in rows,
overlapping them slightly and alternating the direction of the rows.
Combine the sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch and sprinkle this mixture
over the apples. Drizzle the melted butter over all. 4. Bake for 50
minutes, or until the apples are nicely browned and glazed and a cake
tester comes out clean. Remove cake to a wire rack and cool it in the
pan. 5. To serve, hold the foil edges and gently lift the cake from
the pan. Transfer the cake to a serving tray and gently peel away the
foil. Cut the cake into 4" strips between the apple rows. Can
substitute firm ripe peaches, nectarine, or pears for the apples.

What could be more logical? He who believes in Christ is united with Christ. Faith binds him to Christ. He is a member of Christ’s body, the invisible church. But the visible church is but the outward manifestation of that body. Every member of the invisible church should, as a matter of course, be a member of the visible church. Extremely significant in this connection is Acts 2:47: “And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.” Not only does the Lord Christ require of those who are saved that they unite with the church; He Himself joins them to the church. And the reference is unmistakably to the visible church.
