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

According to the Bible, baptism is fundamentally a physical sign of a spiritual reality. Matthew 28:18-20 indicates that it is for believers only, the initial step of obedience in our new life of discipleship to Christ. Romans 6:1-4 is even more specific, indicating that baptism symbolizes our death and burial with Christ as our representative head, and our spiritual resurrection with Him from the symbolic grave. Colossians 2:11-13 indicates even more specifically still that baptism is the physical representation of the spiritual circumcision of our hearts (Mark Dever and Paul Alexander).

We evangelicals make the foolish mistake of thinking that when enough souls decide to make Jesus the Lord of their lives, that He will become the Lord of all things. The reality is that Jesus is already Lord over all things. His kingdom, strictly speaking, does not expand, for even now it knows no borders. He does not, therefore, engage in some sort of power sharing arrangement with other pretenders to His throne, whether they be false deities, or those who falsely worship them. His lordship is not something we accomplish. It is something we recognize and submit to. It is not something we negotiate; it is something we proclaim.

combined.
3. Lightly butter oil or spray griddle, even if it has nonstick surface.
Preheat oven to 200F if you want to keep pancakes warm.
4. Spoon 3 tbsp of batter onto griddle for each pancake, and use spatula or
back of spoon to press batter into rounds. Flip with wide spatula and cook
until both sides are light brown. Flip gently, they are soft and thin and
need extra TLC. Serve immediately, or keep warm in oven.
5. For sauce. Place chocolate in heatproof bowl and set aside. In medium
saucepan, mix cream, sugar, espresso powder and salt over med heat,
stirring to dissolve. Remove from heat and gradually whisk in chocolate
until smooth. Whisk in butter and serve or cover and chill until needed.
"These decadent pancakes are soft, rich and chocolatey enough to satisfy
any craving. Use good cocoa powder that has been Dutch-processed to make
them darker and fudgier. Top with scoop of good vanilla ice cream if
desired."
Sauce will keep up to 2 weeks. If desired, warm over low heat or in
microwave.
