Oprah’s Red Beans And Rice With Salsa

In whom is the New Covenant fulfilled? [Several suggestions] have been given (one's decision on this question will be determined by the interpretation of Luke 22:20 (Mt. 26:28; Mark 14:24); 1 Cor. 11:25; 2 Cor. 3:6; Hebrews 8:6-13; 9:15; 10:15; 10:19ff.). 1. The New Covenant was given exclusively for ethnic Israel and will therefore be fulfilled only in her at the end of the age when Israel as a nation is saved. The Church has no part in the blessings of this covenant. 2. There are two New Covenants, one for ethnic Israel and one for the Church. 3. There is only one New Covenant, for Israel, in which the Church shares spiritually. I.e., those blessings in the covenant which pertain to salvation are equally enjoyed by the Church, but those that pertain to earthly prominence in the land belong solely to Israel. 4. There is only one New Covenant. The Church, being the historical continuation of the believing remnant within Israel, is the recipient of its blessings. Thus, both believing Jews and believing Gentiles, the latter of whom have been graciously included in the covenants of promise (Eph. 2:12), together and equally enjoy the fulfillment of all aspects of the New Covenant. According to this view, there is a biblical expectation of a mass salvation among the Jewish people who will then be incorporated into the Church, the body of Christ. 5. There is only one New Covenant, of which the Church, which has replaced Israel in the purposes of God, is the recipient. This is commonly referred to as Replacement Theology. According to this view, there is no biblical expectation of a mass salvation among the Jewish people. 6. here are two covenants, one for the Jewish people and one for those (whether Jew or Gentile) who embrace Jesus as Messiah. The latter comprise the Church. The former are Jews who need not believe that Jesus is the Messiah but who relate savingly to God via Judaism.

INSTRUCTIONS

Pick over and rinse beans.  Put them into a large bowl and cover
completely with cold water.  Let the beans soak overnight (or for at
least 8 hours). Or use the quicker method described in "Soaking Dried
Beans". Drain the beans and transfer them to a large pot.  Add the 3
cups water. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes.
Stir in the onion, garlic, oregano, and bay leaf. Reduce the heat to
low and simmer, uncovered, for about 1 hour, until the beans are
tender. Add the chili powder, cumin, coriander, red pepper flakes,  and
tomato juice, stirring to mix. Continue to cook while preparing  the
rice.   Put in the rice and chicken stock in a medium saucepan.  Bring
to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover, reduce heat to low, and  simmer
for 45 minutes, or until tender. In the meantime, combine all  the
salsa ingredients in a small serving bowl and set it aside for  the
flavors to meld. When the rice is done, stir it into the bean  mixture.
Ladle into bowls and serve with the salsa on the side.
