We Love God!

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

If your brother sins — chapter-and-verse disobedience to the Bible — and the sin is against you, rebuke him. Not a demeaning humiliation. Just sit down with him and say, “Brother, here in [biblical text], God says... But last Tuesday, you and I were in that meeting and, as I recall, you said/did... Brother, I can’t see how that behavior lines up with this verse. How do you see it?” No vague generalities, but verifiable facts, clearly addressed by the Bible. We need to have the freedom to rebuke one another’s sinful and foolish behavior. But let’s be gentle and respectful. Let’s offer the brother an opportunity to explain himself. After all, there might be more to it than one realizes. And let’s avoid the verb “to be” (“You are...”) or “always” and “never” (“You always/never...”). Those categories are too absolute to be fair. They blast the brother to smithereens, with no dignity left.

Sift the flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt into a bowl and rub
in the butter (no so much that it resembles breadcrumbs); leave the
butter in tiny lumps. Loosen the mixture with two tablespoons
buttermilk; mix in the berries. Fold in the remaining buttermilk to
form a soft consistency. Heat a griddle or frying pan. Divide the
mixture into six and shape into balls, using plenty of flour. Gently
press each one into a 13cm/5in circle. Cook on the hot griddle until
golden; turn halfway through cooking. Keep hot while cooking the  rest,
or eat cold.  NOTES : These Northumberland scones are traditionally
cooked on a  girdle or griddle pan, but you can also use a heavy-based
frying pan.  Hinny is a northern term of endearment; singin is the
noise made as  the butter bubbles inside the mixture; and blaeberry is
the Border  Country word for blueberry. Serve hot with crÃ¨me fraÃ®che
or whipped  cream, extra berries and a dusting of nutmeg. Makes 6, Per
