It is absurd to think that anything in us could have the least influence upon our election. Some say that God did foresee that such persons would believe, and therefore did choose them; so they would make the business of salvation to depend upon something in us. Whereas God does not choose us FOR faith, but TO faith. “He hath chosen us, that we should be holy,” (Ephesians 1:4), not because we would be holy, but that we might be holy. We are elected to holiness, not for it.

Sift dry ingredients together in a mixing bowl. Cut in shortening until it
is the size of small peas. Using a small bowl, beat eggs, then beat in milk
and pour into flour mixture. Stir just until blended; do not overmix or
dough will become tough. Fold in raisins. Roll out dough on floured surface
until 2 inches thick, then cut into rounds on greased baking sheet. Bake in
oven preheated ot 425 degrees for 12 - 15 minutes, or until lightly
browned. Makes about a dozen.
