God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Your shrinking from this truth about hell is not due to your sympathy with people’s pain. It is due to your lack of sympathy with their pain. God is the one who is sympathetic. He is the one who gave His only begotten Son to rescue us from this misery and to inform us insistently, dogmatically, and compassionately that we are in for an awful end if we persist in unbelief. Don’t say that you feel for people when you blunt the edge of the word of the Spirit. What have you ever done that shows that you truly feel for sinners’ eternal pain? Denying the truth of God’s Word about it certainly offers them no help whatsoever.
Legalism…does not describe the attitude of a Christian who earnestly seeks to please God, but uses the law as a means to that end. A sincere desire to please God is not legalism. Nor does it cause legalism. Legalism results from the actual misuse of the law. Nor does legalism in any sense diminish the goodness of the law. There is nothing wrong with God’s holy law. Woe to the person who disparages the holy law that God wrote on stone with His finger.
Cook bacon in skillet until crisp. Remove with slotted spoon and drain.
Cool and coarsely chop; place in large bowl. Set aside until needed.
Cook onion in remaining bacon fat over moderate heat for 15 minutes. Remove
with slotted spoon and add to bacon.
Make Mustard Dressing: Place Dijon and garlic in a bowl; mix well. Using a
wire whisk, incorporate the olive oil a bit at a time, whisking to form a
smooth emulsion. Add the vinegar and whisk until smooth. Add mustard seeds
and mix well.
Meanwhile, cook potatoes in salted boiling water until they are tender but
not mushy. Drain, cool. Add potatoes to the bacon and onion; mix gently.
Add the dressing, capers, red pepper, and mix. Season with salt and pepper.
Serve on a bed of mustard greens.
