God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Ideally, the goal is to see the discipline of child gradually lessen as he or she approaches the teen years (the opposite of what we often see in society) because life lessons have been learned and righteous actions are personally desired. Yet that does not mean parents no longer have a responsibility to discipline their teenager when necessary. In these cases, we have found the best methods to be restitution (a good action toward the one wronged - see Exodus 22) and/or the removal of a privilege (loss of electronics, use of the car, attendance at an event, etc.). Rarely if ever would our teen discipline be 'grounding' (as in unreconciled confinement) or exclusion from family activities or the use of something good as an instrument for 'punishment' (house chores, exercise, writing, etc.).
It is widely assumed that an essential part of apostleship is the authority to write inspired Scripture. There are three problems with this view:
1. Scripture nowhere asserts that all apostles could write Scripture simply because they were apostles.
2. Several of the apostles did not, in fact, write Scripture. Does this disqualify them from being apostles?
3. People other than apostles did, in fact, write Scripture (Mark, Luke, the author of Hebrews, Jude).

INSTRUCTIONS
(From a long-lost acquaintance)
Grease and 8 inch cake pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Use lemon juice
while cutting the apples to prevent browning from oxidation.
Tightly layer the apples into pan.
Sift the flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Cut in the butter. Sprinkle it on
the apples, trying to seal the edges.
Bake about 1 hour; serve warm or at room temperature with whipped cream,
ice cream, or lemon sorbet. I like to serve candied or crystalized ginger
with the crisp.
