Guidance of the Spirit through the mind toward a life of obedience and toward truth is propounded in Scripture as essential Christianity. Nowhere though does the Bible teach that direct guidance by means of impressions must be the experience of the believer. Those who argue that such experiences are to be regular fare for the Christian virtually always make their case on the basis of the narrative or story sections of the Bible and not on those that are didactic or teaching sections. I have not been told by God in His Word that divine visitations of unusual nature constitute authentic Christianity. I have not been commanded to have them or seek them. Interestingly enough, Christ Himself said that it is an evil and adulterous generation that seeks a sign (Matthew 12:39).

Here's a hard candy recipe that's published in a leaflet, "Guide to Hard
Candy Making," by Apollo Mold Company.  It's pretty good, though you have
to be careful to use enough coloring and flavoring!
In a saucepan, blend sugar, corn syrup, and water.  Bring to a boil over
high heat until mixture reaches 290 degrees Fahrenheit.  Stir frequently
with a metal (not wood) spoon. Remove pan from heat. Allow to stand until
bubbles have simmered down. Add flavoring and color, as desired. Too much
stirring will cause the syrup to solidify into a hard sugary lump. Mold
into desired shapes in Apollo Hard Candy Molds sprayed lightly with a
nonstick vegetable oil spray. Work fast. If mixture becomes too cold and
thick, it may be warmed for a few seconds in a microwave.
When hard candies are completely cooled, store them in airtight containers
or place them, individually, in 3- by 5-inch plastic sucker bags.
