Name: Caribbean Shrimp and Black Bean Salad
Ingredients: 1 lb Cooked and cleaned medium shrimp; 1 (15 oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained; 1 sm Green or red pepper cut into short, thin strips; 1/2 c Thinly sliced celery; 1/3 c Very thinly sliced red onion rings; 2/3 c Fresh salsa; 2 tb Fresh cilantro, chopped; 2 tb Vegetable oil; 2 tb Honey; 1 Lime (2 Tbsp juice and 1 tsp shredded peel); 1 c Cherry tomato halves

Unfortunately, many Christians think of salvation only in terms of getting into heaven and avoiding hell. Christ becomes not a way unto life, but merely a way to avoid death, reduced to a get-out-of-jail-free card or – even worse – fire insurance (you’ve seen those bumper stickers). This leaves many Christians understanding what they are saved from, but not having a good understanding of what they are saved into. One danger of evangelism that reduces Christianity to making a decision between heaven and hell is that it overlooks the value of the new birth for our earthly life.
