God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The Bible presupposes a love of self, a desire to experience pleasure and avoid pain, as inherent in the human makeup and as the ground of ethical imperatives. For example, loving ourselves is often used as a criterion in Scripture for the love of others (Mt. 19:19; Eph. 5:28). It is an assumed fact that we do love ourselves, and it is not evil to do so if it is done rightly… Thus Christianity, far from denigrating human worth, actually presupposes it in some of its fundamental teachings. Yet something has tragically blighted and twisted love of self into a gross perversion of God’s intent for His creatures. The fall of the human race into sin caused love of self to become mere selfishness. What was lost was a focus outside the self – that is, a love of God that gave it control and benevolence.

INSTRUCTIONS
Hi, all. I'm catching up on back digests and saw a recent interest in
rutabagas. I found a great recipe in the January/97 issue of Vegetarian
Times (page 49).
Note: Roots get sweeter when they're cooked slowly.
Preheat oven to 350. PAM a 2 qt. casserole dish (if necessary). Arrange
veggies in dish. In small bowl combine sherry or broth, apple juice
concentrate, honey or brown sugar, and lemon rind. Drizzle over root
veggies. Cover with aluminum foil and bake till tender, about 40-50
minutes. Makes 4 servings (80 cal. each).
