Name: Deep-Fried Shrimp and Peas
Ingredients: 1 lb Deep-fried shrimp; 1/2 lb Peas; 1 tb Sherry; 2 ts Soy sauce; 1/2 ts Salt; 1 ds Pepper; 2 ts Cornstarch; 3 tb Water; 2 tb Oil

Creation was complete and immediate by the fiat (decree) of the personal, omniscient, omnipotent designer in six literal days. a. The primary use of the Hebrew word yom ('day') is of a literal twenty four hour day, used in this way over 1,900 times out of more than 2,200 Old Testament occurrences. b. The Hebrew word yom refers to a literal twenty-four-hour day when qualified by a cardinal or ordinal number, as in Genesis 1. There the ordinal numbers are also accompanied by the article, which means literal days are definitely in view. c. 'Evening' and 'morning' normally define a twenty-four- hour day. d. The order of creation's six days followed by one day of rest is the basis for the Sabbath law (Ex. 31:15—17).
