It was [Paul’s] mission as the “apostle to the Gentiles,” and it is the universal church’s mission as well, to promote that harmony of cultures in Christ that the cross brings them (or, we might say, forces upon them for their good). Imagine what it took for this former Jewish leader to accept that the Jews’ lofty position as God’s chosen people is not ultimately about ethnic Jews, but only Jewish Christians who share the position with “Gentile dogs” who have also become Christians. The promises made to the Jews are for all who are in Christ; the inheritance is both for Jews and Gentiles. We are all members of one body. The immensity of this new knowledge is not only enough to cause every God-fearing Jew to scream curses at Paul, but is the very reason Gentiles like me have any hope whatsoever. Paul carried this message everywhere.

INSTRUCTIONS

RINSE THE ONIONS IN A strainer, just to separate them and remove extra ice.
Blot them on paper towels. In a large, heavy skillet, heat the oil over
high heat. When it is hot, add the onions and sugar and continue cooking
for 5 minutes, shaking often, until the onions are lightly colored. Add the
beef stock, adjust the heat to medium- high, and continue cooking until the
liquid is almost completely evaporated, about 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in the
vinegar, cook for 30 seconds, season with salt and pepper, and serve.

A Message from our Provider:

“He who angers you, controls you!”

Is a Christian couple free to take steps to avoid ever having any children? The issue here is one of motive: Wrong motives for being childless: 1. The world is over-crowded. 2. The world is too corrupt. 3. “We don't like kids!” 4. “We want the money and time to spend on ourselves.” Right motives for being childless: 1. If there is good reason to believe the parents would pass on a genetically fatal disease. 2. If you are physically able to have kids but physically unable to raise and nurture them. 3. If children would impede a clear call to ministry (missionaries). 4. If you are financially unable to provide for them (but this is only legitimate for delaying the bearing of children, not for not having any at all, ever).
