If we do not know who God is and how He thinks and what He does, we have no grounds for joy, no reason to celebrate, no basis for finding satisfaction in God. Delight in God cannot occur in an intellectual vacuum. Our joy is the fruit of what we know and believe to be true of God. Emotional heat (i.e., joy, delight, gladness of heart) apart from intellectual light (knowledge of God) is useless. Worse still, it is dangerous, for it inevitably leads to fanaticism and idolatry.

Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and
cloves.
Chop walnuts, dates and raisins (by hand or by food chopper).
Cream shortening and gradually beat in brown sugar till fluffy, then add
the eggs, nuts and fruits.
Stir the shortening mixture into flour mixture and drop by teaspoons onto a
greased baking sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes.
* Note:  I've added up to 3/4 cup brown sugar.  Sometimes with the lesser
amount of brown sugar, I've added a bit of maple syrup.
