Applesauce Apple Butter In A Crockpot

The source of my authority in this pulpit is not...my wisdom; nor is it a private revelation granted to me beyond the revelation of Scripture. My words have authority only insofar as they are the repetition, unfolding and proper application of the words of Scripture. I have authority only when I stand under authority. And our corporate symbol of that truth is the sound of your Bibles opening to the text. My deep conviction about preaching is that a pastor must show the people that what he is saying was already said or implied in the Bible. If it cannot be shown it has no special authority.

INGREDIENTS

3	qt	Unsweetened Applesauce
2	lb	Granulated Sugar
1	lb	Brown Sugar
3/4	c	Apple Cider
1/2	t	Nutmeg
1/4	t	Allspice
3/4	t	Cloves
3	t	Cinnamon

INSTRUCTIONS

The thicker skinned, late Summer and Fall apples produce a grainier
texture that's best for applesauce. Stir applesauce, sugars, and  cider
together and cook in a slow oven (325 deg F.) for 3 hours,  stirring
occasionally. Add spices. Return to oven and cook 1 hour  more. Apple
butter requires long, slow cooking. (Can also be made in  a crockpot.)

We may preach with great eloquence, we may have unanswerable arguments, but if we are preaching to the lost, we must remember that they are people whose minds have been blinded by the god of this age. Our most eloquent appeals will make no impact unless a Sovereign God causes His light to dawn upon their hearts. Our approach in preaching should not be to say merely that we are offering something beneficial that you our hearer can and should take up at any time. We have a more disquieting message. We are to tell the lost, 'You are slaves. You are blind. You cannot even understand what we are saying unless God in His mercy enables you.' The Lord must illumine. Our preaching can succeed only “in demonstration of the Spirit and of power” (1 Cor. 2:4). That must be the starting point for preaching the Lord God will honor.
