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

One common misunderstanding about the doctrine of limited atonement is that this view somehow lessens or limits the value of the atonement of Christ. Yet exactly the opposite is true. Limited atonement correctly recognizes that Christ’s death was of infinite value and lacking in nothing. In fact, it is of such value that, had God so willed, Christ’s death could have saved every member of the human race. Christ would not have had to suffer any more or do anything different to save every human who ever lived than He did in securing the salvation of the elect. But that was not God’s purpose in sending Christ to the cross. God’s purpose in the atonement was that Jesus would secure forever the salvation of those the Father had given to Him (Hebrews 7:25). Therefore, while Christ’s atonement was limited in its intent or purpose, it was unlimited in its power.

Sin dwells in hell, and holiness in heaven. Remember that every temptation is from the devil, to make you like himself. Remember when you sin, that you are learning and imitating of the devil – and are so far like him. And the end of all, is that you may feel his pains. If hell-fire be not good, then sin is not good.

INGREDIENTS

1 c Finely ground walnuts
2 1/4 c Unbleached; all-purpose flour
1/2 ts Salt
1/2 lb Unsalted buter; softened
1/2 c Confectioners' sugar; plus 2 cups for dredging
1 ts Vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine walnuts, flour, and salt in a
medium bowl. Beat butter with an electric mixer on medium speed. Gradually
add 1/2 cup sugar and beat until mixture is fluffy. Beat in vanilla, then
reduce speed and add flour mixture, mixing until just combined.
2. Using your hands, shape dough, 1 tbsp. at a time, into small balls, then
place about 1" apart on nonstick baking sheets. Bake until cookies are
slightly golden, about 10 minutes. Remove cookies from the oven and allow
to cool for 5-10 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, place remaining 2 cups sugar on a large plate. Roll cookies,
while still warm, in sugar, then transfer to a wire rack to cool. Once
cookies are completely cool, roll them again in sugar.
