God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The man who studies theology, and especially he who studies dogmatics, might watch carefully whether he increasingly does not think in the third rather than the second person. You know what I mean by that. This transition from one to the other level of thought, from a personal relationship with God to a merely technical reference, usually is exactly synchronized with the moment that I no longer can read the word of Holy Scripture as a word to me, but only as the object of exegetical endeavors. This is the first step toward the worst and most widespread ministers’ disease. For the minister frequently can hardly expound a text as a letter which has been written to him, but he reads the text under the impulse of the question, How would it be used in a sermon?
Combine all ingredients in container of an electric blender; cover and
process until smooth. Serve immediately. Yield: 2-1/2 cups (serving size:
1-1/4 cups).
