Consomme With Julienne Vegetables

The Bible does not forbid taking oaths, acknowledging that in a world filled with liars there are times when they are necessary. Certainly it is not wrong to take an oath when testifying in court, being ordained, or getting married. Oaths are wrong when they are misused with the intent to deceive others, or when taken rashly or flippantly. The Bible gives examples of godly men who took oaths, lists God’s commandments that oaths be taken, and records instances of God Himself taking oaths.

Benefits of delighting ourselves in God: 1. Delight in God will prove that you know Him and love Him and that you are prepared for His kingdom, for all who truly delight in Him shall enjoy Him. 2. Prosperity, which is merely the small addition of earthly things, will not easily corrupt you or transport you. 3. Adversity, that is, the withholding of earthly delights, will not much grieve you or easily deject you. 4. You will receive more profit from a sermon or good book or conversation you delight in, than other people, who don’t delight in them, will receive from many such opportunities. 5. All your service will be sweet to yourself and acceptable to God; if you delight in Him, He certainly delights in you (Psalm 149:4; 147:11; 1 Chronicles 29:17). 6. He will have a continual feast with you, to sweeten all the crosses of your life and provide you with joy greater than your sorrow in your saddest condition. 7. When you delight in God, your created pleasures will be sanctified to you and warranted in their proper place, which in other people are idolatrous or corrupt.
