The work of the Spirit is not to tell us what the [Bible] means. That we must determine by a disciplined study of the text. The Spirit inspired these writings and He does not short-circuit them by whispering in our ear what they mean. When we pray for His help we do not pray that He will spare us the hard work of rigorous reading and reflection. What we pray is that He would make us humble enough to welcome the truth. The work of the Spirit in helping us grasp the meaning of [the Bible] is not to make study unnecessary but to make us radically open to receive what our study turns up, instead of twisting the text to justify our unwillingness to accept it.

INSTRUCTIONS

These have become our latest favorite in our household. Although the recipe
calls for walnuts, skip them and use candied ginger instead, or dried
currants or raisins.
Mix ingredients together in mixer. (Don't over mix.)
Turn the gooey dough onto a baking pan (spray with pan release like a pan
release agent first). Using a spatula, shape into two logs, about 2.5 to 3
inches wide and 10-12 inches long.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes (until dough loses its shine & is
browned a bit.) Remove logs to a cooling rack. Cool for 10 minutes. Slice
logs on a sharp diagonal, cutting about 10-12 slices per log.
Place slices back on cookie sheet, laying cut side down. Bake 10 min. each
at 300 degrees (turning once during second baking).
Remove to rack and completely cool.
* 1 tablespoon flax seed + 3 tablespoons water (boiled, then seed removed)
= 1 egg replacement. You can also use 2 egg whites for each egg called for
in a recipe. This recipe originally called for 2 eggs (whole), plus 2 egg
whites, so the flax liquid required totals 8 tablespoons or ? cup (3 T. per
egg, plus 1 T. per white.)

variations: * replace the soy flour with cocoa, and replace the walnuts
with hazelnuts. * replace the walnuts with dried figs and/or currants (this
will reduce the total fat per serving too.) * use a mixture of flours
instead of wheat or spelt-such as rice flour, soy flour etc. * replace the
soy flour with cornmeal for extra crunchiness and replace the sugar with
1/3 cup maple syrup * a real zinger is to replace the walnuts with diced
candied ginger
