INSTRUCTIONS

COOK ASPARAGUS IN BOILING salted water until barely tender, about 10
minutes. Drain in a colander, spray with cold water, and pat dry. Lay
asparagus out on a platter. Melt 3 tablespoons of butter and drizzle it
over asparagus spears. Put beaten eggs on one plate and flour for dredging
on another. Heat remaining butter and oil in a skillet. Wrap each asparagus
spear in a slice of prosciutto. Roll them in flour (brush off excess), dip
in egg, and saute them until golden, about 2 minutes to a side. Drain on
paper towels and serve hot. NOTE: If there are no fat asparagus, use twice
as many skinny ones; cook a few minutes less and roll 2 spears in each
slice of prosciutto.

A Message from our Provider:

“Prayer: Don’t give God instructions — just report for duty!”

The Holy Spirit used four Greek words that are transliterated “baptism” or like derivatives in our English Bibles. In its context, each word gives the impression of immersion. Whether it is the baptism of trials or the baptism into the church or ceremonial washings or dipping bread into a bowl of oil, these words in the Bible and in other secular Greek writings of the time imply immersion. For instance, the verb Bapto in every usage means “to dip” or “to dye.” The word was used in common language when items were completely engulfed in a liquid to produce a change in color. Therefore, all Greek lexicons give the primary meanings of these 4 words as “dip,” “plunge” or “immerse.” As a matter of fact, the six Greek words that could be translated “pour” or “sprinkle” are never used in connection with water baptism.
