Name: Jamaican Jerk Spice
Ingredients: 1 Onion; 1/2 c Chopped scallions; 2 ts Chopped fresh thyme leaves; 1 ts Salt; 1 ts Allspice; 1/2 ts Cinnamon; 1/4 ts Nutmeg; 1 ts Black pepper (up to); 6 Scotch Bonnets; finely chopped

I like the way John Piper once put this along the lines of fearing God and perseverance. “Fearing the Lord means fearing to run away from Him. It means fearing to seek refuge and joy and hope anywhere but in God. It means keeping before our eyes what a fearful prospect it is to stop trusting and depending on God to meet our needs.” He who does not fear God has called a peace treaty with sin. But he who does fear God, battles sin and fervently continues in the daily quest for holiness. So fearing God enables us to obey Him, mature spiritually and faithfully persevere until the end.

INSTRUCTIONS

I found this receipe in some magazine I picked up -- I think it was Essence
~- and it is good.  Put all ingredients into blender or food processor.
But I was in Jamiaca a few weeks ago and went to Boston Beach, home of the
Jerk Sauce and bought some which I was able to bring int the country (USA)
without trouble. It was in an old plastic soda bottle!  The man who sold it
to me said that there were 32 ingredients! Does anyone know what
ingredients those could be that are legal?

A Message from our Provider:

“God is unfeeling? Ha! Alongside him we’re as cold as stones”

God wants us to follow a recurring pattern of intense work and then rest, intense work and then rest, and so forth. Whatever view one takes of the Sabbath, surely the six days of work and the one day of rest embedded in the creation remain relevant in some sense. Any routine of life that is unsustainable long-term cannot be of God. He calls us to work. But he also calls us to rest, in order to work most fruitfully. What sets us apart is this. We rest, in order to work; we do not work, in order to rest. We who believe the gospel are not living for the weekend, but for The End. In the meantime, we figure out rhythms of life that make fruitful labor sustainable.
