We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

The true Christian was intended by Christ to prove all things by the Word of God, all churches, all ministers, all teaching, all preaching, all doctrines, all sermons, all writings, all opinions, all practices. These are his marching orders. Prove all by the Word of God; measure all by the measure of the Bible; compare all with the standard of the Bible; weigh all in the balances of the Bible; examine all by the light of the Bible; test all in the crucible of the Bible. That which cannot abide the fire of the Bible, reject, refuse, repudiate, and cast away. This is the flag which he nailed to the mast. May it never be lowered!

Why is the wife in marriage required to be the one who submits (Eph. 5, Col. 3, Tit. 2, 1 Pet. 3)? Because God set it up this way, based on the order of creation (1 Timothy 2) and ultimately to show the primary purpose on marriage. Marriage is to be a visual picture of the Gospel. Sex before marriage is wrong because we do not have intimacy with Christ until covenant. Adultery is wrong because we are to be entirely devoted to Christ and not other idols. Divorce is wrong because God would never leave us nor would we ever want to leave Him. We are one flesh in marriage to show the oneness we have with Christ – Him in us, us in Him. We leave our parents and cleave to our spouse to show how we leave the world and cleave to Christ. Marriage is between one man and one woman to show the marriage between Christ and His bride. And we have God designed roles in marriage whereby the husband would show Christ by leading through example and sacrificial love and the wife would show the bride of Christ (the church) by trusting her husband’s spiritual leadership for her well-being. After a lengthy discourse on the marital roles, Paul in Ephesians 5 makes the point clear in verse 32. “This mystery is great [marriage]; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church. It’s all Gospel-centered.

CATEGORY CUISINE TAG YIELD
Meats, Eggs American Main dish, Meats, Jaw 4 Servings

INGREDIENTS

2 c Cubed beef sirloin, trimmed
Of all visable fat
2 ts Olive oil
1 md Yellow onion, chopped
2 c Sliced mushrooms
1 Clove garlic, crushed
1 tb Flour
1/2 ts Dried thyme leaves
1/4 ts Freshly ground black pepper
1/8 ts Nutmeg
1/2 c Dry red wine
1 1/2 c Beef broth
3 c Cooked extra-wide egg
Noodles
2 tb Chopped fresh parsley

INSTRUCTIONS

Brown beef cubes in the olive oil in a 12 inch nonstick skillet set over
medium heat. Turn the cubes frequently to ensure even browning on all
sides. Add the onions and cook 2 to 3 minutes longer, or until the onions
are fragrant. Add the mushrooms and garlic and reduce heat to medium low;
cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes longer, or until mushrooms
are brown.
Combine the flour, thyme leaves, black pepper and nutmeg in a small dish.
Sprinkle the flour mixture evenly over the meat and mushroom mixture,
stirring well. Allow the flour mixture to "toast" in the pan without
burning for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Then, stir in the red wine and beef
broth. Stir until the liquid comes to a boil and thickens very slightly.
Reduce heat to low, cover loosely, and simmer for 20 minutes. The sauce
will continue to thicken as water evaporates during cooking. If the sauce
becomes too thick, add a few tablespoons of water or beef broth.
While the meat is cooking, cook the noodles according to package
directions. When tender, stir the noodles and parsley into the beef mixture
and heat through.
