We Love God!

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

In Philippians 3, Paul explained how his “righteous merit” exceeded any on the planet. If anyone could have earned heaven it would have been him. Yet Paul knew we can never earn God’s favor. The only hope we have is the righteousness of Jesus Christ given to us as a gift when we embrace Him by faith. Though the specifics are different, the boasts are the same: I was born in America. I grew up in a devout Christian family. I was baptized. I read my Bible and pray every morning. I faithfully attend church. I serve in the church. I participate in the Lord’s Supper each month. I am blameless in my obedience to the Scriptures. All of these are excellent, but when we use them to earn God’s saving favor, they are but “rubbish.”

When we violate our sense of right and wrong, even if the action in itself is not sinful, we are guilty of sin. “Whatever does not proceed from faith is sin” (Rom. 14:23). That means, if you don’t believe what you are doing is acceptable, then it’s not acceptable for you to do it. You must not ignore your conscience… Even if the Bible gives the green light, the red light in your conscience should not be transgressed.

INSTRUCTIONS

I also made this tonight. I don't usually make such "sauce-filled" meals,
but I have a bunch of milk that expired a couple of days ago and since it
still looked fine, I wanted to use it up. This made a bit too much sauce
but it was good. Next time I might serve it with rice and use some of the
sauce on top of the rice. I got this from the 1991 Milk Calendar (a good
kind of calendar to have a round when one is trying to use up milk!)
1. In anon-stick skillet over medium-high heat, brown chops, about 5
minutes on each side. Reduce heat, cover and cook for 10 to 15 min. or
until chops are no longer pink in centre. Remove to platter and keep warm.
2. Pour off any excess fat in pan. Add butter, oil, and onions. Stir fry
until onions are golden.
3. Add flour and mix until smooth. Blend in milk and cook, stirring until
gravy thickens and comes to a boil. Add herbs and seasonings to taste.
4. Simmer for 2 minutes. Pour over chops and serve.
MICROWAVE DIRECTIONS: Brown chops on top of stove as above. Meanwhile,
microwave butter and oil in a 4 cup/1L bowl, uncovered on HIGH for 30
seconds. Add onions and cook on HIGH, covered, for 3 minutes stirring
twice. Add flour and toss with onions. Gradually Blend in milk. Cook on
HIGH, uncovered, for 3 to 4 minutes stirring twice, until mixture boils and
is thickened. Add herbs and seasonings to taste. When sauce is ready, drain
any fat from frypan. Increase stove-top heat to Medium-High. Quickly stir
sauce into skillet, mixing to stir up browned bits. Pour sauce over chops
and serve.
