According to the Puritans, the law of Moses has two basic functions: as a “covenant of works,” it condemns the sinner who disobeys it; as an expression of God's holy will, it directs the conduct of the people of God. For the Christians, the first of these functions is at an end, and this is what Paul means when he asserts that Christians are not “under the law” (Rom. 6:14-15). But the second of these functions remains fully in place, as Paul also suggests when he claims that the gospel “establishes the law” (3:31).

Line a large crystal or trifle bowl with 1 layer of sponge cake and make a
border of lady fingers around the rim.  Spread the sponge cake with  half
of raspberry jam. Sprinkle with half of sherry on top of jam and on lady
fingers. Cover tightly with saran wrap to dry.  In top of double boiler,
beat egg yolks with sugar until thick. Slowly stir in scalded half and
half. Cook over simmering water until thickened. Remove from heat and stir
in almond extract. Cool. Place one half of custard into bowl on top of
sponge cake. Place the second half of cake on top; spread with remaining
jam.  Sprinkle with remaining sherry. Pour remaining custard on top of
second cake layer.
Whip cream until stiff and spread over the top, allowing the lady fingers
to create an edge. Decorate the top with cherries and almonds. Chill well.

A Message from our Provider:

“Conviction is not repentance; conviction leads to repentance. But you can be convicted without repentance. #Martyn Lloyd-Jones”

To worship God…is to “glory in His holy name” (Ps. 105:3), that is, to revel adoringly in who He is in His revealed character. But before we can glory in God’s name, we must know it; hence the propriety of the reading and preaching of the Word of God in public worship… These things are not an intrusion into worship; they form the necessary foundation of it. God must speak to us before we have any liberty to speak to Him. He must disclose to us who He is before we can offer Him what we are in acceptable worship. The worship of God is always a response to the Word of God. Scripture wonderfully directs and enriches our worship.
