Oven Baked Figs With Walnuts And Yoghurt

The Old Covenant law was never given to earn salvation. God saved people back then just as He does today under the New Covenant – by faith! Even before the law we read that “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness” (Rom. 4:3). Therefore the Old Covenant law was given for God’s people to identify themselves as God’s people. The law was for those already saved so it may go well with them and they may know how to rightly honor God with their actions. In other words, the law didn’t save, but obedience to the law gave evidence of salvation. And when the law was violated, the whole sacrificial system was in place to make temporary atonement through blood for one’s transgression.

		1/2 cup
60		Honey, 3 tablespoons
1/2	c	Clotted cream or thick

INSTRUCTIONS

Gently pummel the figs to soften and reshape them after they come out
of their package. Cut off the stalks then slice the figs open from  the
stalk end, about halfway through.  Press a walnut half into the fig and
sprinkle some of the ground nuts  over the walnut. Press the top of the
fig down onto the nut, so that  the nut is enclosed as much as
possible.  Place the figs in a small baking dish then drizzle with
honey and a  little water and bake at 200c. for about 8-10 minutes
until hot and  bubbling.  Serve warm with a little extra honey drizzled
over and some clotted  cream or yoghurt if desired.  Converted by
