The two theologies thus conceive the plan of salvation in quite different terms. One makes salvation depend on the work of God, the other on a work of man; one regards faith as part of God's gift of salvation, the other as man's own contribution to salvation; one gives all the glory of saving believers to God, the other divides the praise between God, who, so to speak, built the machinery of salvation, and man, who by believing operated it.

At serving time, stand 2 peach halves upright in each of 6 stemmed glasses;
place a scoop of ice cream between halves; spoon cranberry puree over ice
cream. NOTES: If fresh peaches aren't available, you can used canned
freestone (Elberta) peaches. The cranberry puree has a nubby texture; if
you want a smoother sauce, press puree through fine-mesh sieve to remove
bits of skin.

A Message from our Provider:

“Do you have PEACE in your life? Trust in God.”

What then were the apostles? It is plain from the divine record that they were men immediately commissioned by Christ to make a full and authoritative revelation of His religion; to organize the church; to furnish it with officers and laws, and to start it on its career of conquest through the world... The apostles, the twelve, stand out just as conspicuous as an isolated body in the history of the church, without predecessors, and without successors, as Christ Himself does. They disappear from history. The title, the thing itself, the gifts, the functions, all ceased when John, the last of the twelve, ascended to heaven.
