Situation ethics is ungodly ethics. God’s Word, not a given human situation, determines what is right and wrong. Christians do not make truth; and a group of believers, no matter how large or influential – even if they were to be apostle – who take a wrong position or indulge in a wrong practice are still wrong. Neither expediency falsely defined love, nor majority vote have any bearing on truth and righteousness.

to the soup in the kettle; return soup to boil. Add ditalini and 2 teasp
salt; simmer until pasta is just tender, about 10 minutes. Let stand 1 hour
to allow flavors to meld. (Can be cooled, covered, and refrigerated up to 2
days.)

1/2 Tabsp olive oil and sprinkle 1/8 teasp pepper over each portion. Serve
