Name: Almond Persimmon Pudding
Ingredients: 1 1/2 c Sifted flour; 1 1/2 ts Baking soda; 1/2 ts Salt; 1/2 ts Ground cinnamon; 2 Eggs; 1 1/4 c Sugar; 1 1/2 c Sieved persimmon pulp; 1/4 c Butter or margarine; melted; 3/4 c Milk; 1 c Raisins; 1/2 c Chopped almonds; Bottled hard sauce OR whipped cream

Furthermore, a close study of the text nowhere suggests that the stone of the tomb was rolled away from the tomb to let Jesus out. The earthquake and rolling back of the stone recorded in Matthew (28:2) as a sign of a wonderful event, not as the event itself. There can be only one conclusion: the body of Jesus was gone before the stone was rolled away. It did not need to be removed for Him to escape the tomb; He had already escaped it. The removal of the stone was for the disciples, not for Jesus.

A Message from our Provider:

“Having Truth decay? Brush up on your Bible!”

Have you ever noticed the difference between the way the followers of Mohammed and the followers of Jesus react when one or the other is insulted? When Mohammed is insulted, Islam says the offender is to be killed by the faithful, but when Jesus is mocked, Scripture teaches us to pray that God would have mercy on the mocker. Why the difference? Do Muslims hold Mohammed in higher esteem? Not at all. It’s simply this: Mohammed oppressed and slaughtered some of those that resisted his message and taught his followers to do the same. But Jesus died for His enemies and taught us to love our enemies as well, so that we would be like our Father in heaven. Now, I ask you, which religion sounds as though it came from heaven, and which was made here on earth?
