God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The saints are sinners still. Our best tears need to be wept over, the strongest faith is mixed with unbelief, our most flaming love is cold compared with what Jesus deserves, and our intensest zeal still lacks the full fervor which the bleeding wounds and pierced heart of the crucified might claim at our hands. Our best things need a sin offering, or they would condemn us.
Many of the pulpiteers of the past fifty years acted as though the first and last object of their calling was the salvation of souls, everything being made to bend to that aim. In consequence, the feeding of the sheep, the maintaining of a Scriptural discipline in the church, and the inculcation of practical piety, was crowded out; and only too often all sorts of worldly devices and fleshly methods were employed under the plea that the end justified the means; and thus the churches were filled with unregenerate members. In reality, such men defeated their own aim. The hard heart must be ploughed and harrowed before it can be receptive to the gospel seed. Doctrinal instruction must be given on the character of God, the requirements of his Law, the nature and heinousness of sin, if a foundation is to be laid for true evangelism. It is useless to preach Christ unto souls until they see and feel their desperate need of him.
Boil broth and pickling spice in heavy large saucepan ten minutes. Strain
and return liquid to saucepan. Add chicken, onion, vinegar, garlic, oil
and cumin to pan. Simmer over very low heat until chicken is just cooked
through, about ten minutes. Transfer chicken and onions to shallow dish.
Top with bell peppers and minced chilli. Boil cooking liquid until reduced
to 2/3 c, about ten minutes. Pour liquid over chicken and let cool 30
minutes. Add cilantro to chicken mixture. Cover and refrigerate until well
chilled, turning chicken occasionally, about 4 hours (can be prepared one
day ahead). Slice chicken and transfer to plates. Top with marinated
vegetables and some of the juices. Pass tortilla chips to use as "pushers."
