Who can tell the misery that unbelief has brought on the world? Unbelief made Eve eat the forbidden fruit – she doubted the truth of God's word: “You will surely die.” Unbelief made the old world reject Noah's warning, and so perish in their sin. Unbelief kept Israel in the wilderness – it was the barricade that kept them from entering the Promised Land. Unbelief made the Jews crucify the Lord of glory – they did not believe the voice of Moses and the prophets, even though they were read to them every day. And unbelief is the reigning sin of man’s heart down to this very hour – unbelief in God’s promises – unbelief in God's wrath and discipline – unbelief in our own sinfulness – unbelief in our own danger – unbelief in everything that runs counter to the pride and worldliness of our evil hearts.

INSTRUCTIONS

CUBED VEGGIES
MISCELLANEOUS
MEAT
ROUX
This recipe was reduced from the original which was intended for about 100
people, and called for 15 pounds of potatoes, 5 gallons of water and other
ingredients in the same grandiose proportions. The above combination may be
varied at will; just remember to use beer instead of water to improve the
flavours.
Combine the Cubed Veggies with the Miscellaneous stuff and cook until the
veggies are done.
Add the beef and cook another 5 minutes at low simmer.
Finally, add the Roux, stir well and cook over medium heat about 15
minutes.
To make the Roux, which is a thickening agent used around the world and
named by the French, you heat the oil on medium heat and add the flour.
Stirring constantly, slowly brown the mixture without burning until it
turns a nice chocolatey brown. Slowly add in the cold water, stirring
constantly until the consistency is smooth. When required, add to the stew
and blend in well with the thinner liquid. The 15 minutes at medium heat
causes the flour to absorb a lot of the liquid and thicken the stew.
