Low-fat Scones – We Love God!

The doctrine of concurrence affirms that God directs, and works through, the distinctive properties of each created thing, so that these things themselves bring about the results that we see. In this way it is possible to affirm that in one sense events are fully (100 percent) caused by God and fully (100 percent) caused by the creature as well. However, divine and creaturely causes work in different ways. The divine cause of each event works as an invisible, behind-the-scenes, directing cause and therefore could be called the 'primary cause' that plans and initiates everything that happens. But the created thing brings about actions in ways consistent with the creature’s own properties [which God unchangeably gave and sustains], ways that can often be described by us or by professional scientists who carefully observe the processes. These creaturely factors and properties can therefore be called the 'secondary' causes of everything that happens, even though they are the causes that are evident to us by observation (Wayne Grudem and Jeff Purswell).

<MaggarCh@SLCC.EDU> This is out of a  cookbook called Real People
Cookin' Low Fat by Kathy M. Walton, Ph.D  & LynnetteM. Yerbury, CPA,
MBA from Salt Lake Community College in  Salt Lake City, Utah.  Preheat
oven to 400 degrees.  Spray a round cake pan with PAM.  In a  large
mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and sugar.  Add  the
margarine and work it into the flour with a fork until evenly
distributed. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the egg beaters, milk
and lemon peel. Beat with a mixer for about four minutes or until
fluffy. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in  the
egg mixture. Combine with a mixer or wooden spoon. Add the  raisins and
stir them into the batter.  On a floured bread board, work the batter
into an even, circular  shape the size of the pan.  Place the batter
into the pan and using a  knife, cut into eight wedges.  Place in the
oven and bake for 25  minutes or until brown. Combine the powdered
sugar, vanilla, and milk  to form a glaze, and drizzle over the scones
when removed from the  oven.  Serve.  Variations:  Instead of the glaze
top with a sprinkle of cinnamon and  sugar, or drizzle with honey.
Note:  These make a great breakfast, brunch, or afternoon tea delight!

A Message from our Provider:

“Forgiveness is not automatic”

That which distinguishes man from the animal kingdom is the imago Dei, the image of God. The image of God has traditionally been identified with such things as rationality, self-consciousness, the exercise of dominion, and moral conscience. However, we must be careful in defining the image of God in wholly functional terms. The image of God is as much a state as it is a capacity. The image is not to be conceived as an end in a process whereby an unborn entity progresses into personhood. The image is a given, not a goal to which the fetus moves in its physiological development. No one denies that the fetus develops. But this development is not from non-person to part-person to full-person, but rather from full-person to the consummate expression and experience of all that personhood entails.
