Will hell be everlasting? All the way back in the Old Testament, Daniel 12:2, “Many of those who sleep in the dust of the ground will awake, these to everlasting life, but the others to disgrace and everlasting contempt.” Matthew 25:46 “These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.” In this verses, the word translated “eternal” is the same one used for both heaven and hell. Heaven and hell parallel each other for eternity. They both stand or fall together. Jesus in Matthew 18:8 calls hell and “eternal fire.” Three times, Mark says of those in in hell, “Their worm will not die” (Mk. 9:44, 46, 48; cf. Isa. 66:24). When Jude speaks of false teachers in hell he says “for whom the black darkness has been reserved forever” (Jude 13). 2 Thessalonians 1:9, “These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power.”

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Toast the almonds and set aside.
2. Combine all other ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Chill for at least
3. Form the cream cheese mixture into the shape of a pinecone. Beginning at
the bottom,, gently press the almonds in rows across the pinecone shape.
Continue the rows until the whole shape is covered, and resembles a
pinecone. Either eat immediately or refrigerate. Allow to come up to room
temperature before serving. Garnish with greens.
NOTES : A marble board works well for this as it will hold the cool
temperature longer than a plate. If fresh greens are used be careful that
they are not poisonous.

A Message from our Provider:

“Thankfulness to God is a recognition that God in His goodness and faithfulness has provided for us and cared for us, both physically and spiritually. It is a recognition that we are totally dependent upon Him; that all that we are and have comes from God. #Jerry Bridges”
