Easter Lamb With Roast Spring Onions

The very center and core of the whole Bible is the doctrine of the grace of God — the grace of God which depends not one whit upon anything that is in man, but is absolutely undeserved, resistless and sovereign. The theologians of the Church can be placed in an ascending scale according as they have grasped that one great central doctrine, that doctrine that gives consistency to all the rest; and Christian experience also depends for its depth and for its power upon the way in which that blessed doctrine is cherished in the depths of the heart. The center of the Bible, and the center of Christianity, is found in the grace of God; and the necessary corollary of the grace of God is salvation through faith alone.

12		Spring onions, trimmed up
		to18
600		Lamb stock or home-made
		chicken stock
		A little roux
		Salt and freshly ground

		Mint sauce
1		Sprig mint and parsley

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/gas 4.  If possible, ask your butcher to
remove the H-bone from the top of  the leg of lamb so that it will be
easier to carve later, then trim  the knuckle end of the leg. Season
the skin with salt and pepper. Put  into a roasting tin and roast in a
preheated oven for about 1-11/4  hours for rare meat, 11/4-11/2 hours
for medium and 11/2-2 hours for  well done, depending on size. Pop in
the spring onions for the last  20 minutes or so.  Test the lamb with a
skewer. When the lamb is cooked to your taste,  remove the joint and
the onions to a carving dish. Leave the meat to  rest for 10 minutes
before carving.  Meanwhile make the gravy. Remove the fat from the
juices in the  roasting tin with a metal spoon and add the stock. Bring
to the boil  and whisk in a little roux to thicken slightly. Taste and
allow to  bubble up until the flavour is concentrated enough. Correct
the  seasoning and serve the gravy with the garnished lamb, mint sauce,
spring onions and lots of crusty roast potatoes.  DISCLAIMER(c)

As Christians growing into maturity in Christ, we don't deny our feelings, but rather we pray for our feelings to be aligned with the gospel, aligned with the Word of God, aligned in ways that will only bring glory to Christ, aligned with biblical truth. We want our feelings not to drive the equation of decision-making and understanding. We want feelings to follow. We don't want to be unfeeling. That would be to be unhuman. That would be a denial of how we are made in God's image. That would be not only to be insensitive, but incapable of empathy. That can't be right. But at the same time, we have to recognize it can't be right for feelings to drive everything.
