Name: Peach Cobbler
Ingredients: 2 c All-purpose flour; 1 tb Backing powder; 1/4 ts Salt; 2 tb Sugar; 1 tb Finely grated orange zest; 4 tb Cold butter; cut into 1 pieces; 1/2 c Milk; 2 lg Eggs; 14 Peaches; pitted and unpeeled; 1 1/2 c Sugar; 1 ts Cinnamon; 1/4 ts Nutmeg

Do you want to go to heaven? I mean, do you really want to go to heaven? Let’s remember that heaven is a place of perfect holiness. That means as we delight in beholding God’s glory now, it is as if we are, 2 Corinthians 3:18, “beholding [Him] as if in a mirror.” Heaven will be direct exposure to the fullness of His glory. Why there and not here? Because we still have sin. Yet the split second Christians die, they are instantly transformed to be as righteous as Christ. Now we are declared as perfectly righteous as Christ. Then we will be made as perfectly righteous as Christ. If you are in Christ, this will be your state into all of eternity. Therefore I have to make the two following conclusions: One, we can think of our time here on earth as we are being made more holy like God only as preparation for our future existence with Him. And two, if you really want to go to heaven and be as holy as God throughout all of eternity, isn’t it safe to assume you’d desire it right now as well?

INSTRUCTIONS

FILLING
more from The Thrill of the Grill (one esp for Chris!)
A classic country dessert which I always eat topped with heavy cream. The
technique of cooking the peach mixture before adding the topping avoids the
twin perils of cobblers: undercooked fruit or overcooked topping. You can
substitute apples or pears or most any other fruit for the peaches in this
recipe, but vary the sugar and spices accordingly.
1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
2. Butter a 10" x 12" x 2"' baking pan
3. Make the topping: Mix all the dry ingredients, including the orange
zest, in a medium-sized bowl. Using a fork, cut the butter into this
mixture until it has the consistency of coarse meal. Add the milk and eggs,
and mix until smooth. Cover and refrigerate.
4. Make the filling: Cut the peaches into bite-sized chunks. In a large
mixing bowl, combine the sugar and spices. Add the peach chunks and toss
until they are well coated.
5.Place the fruit mixture in the pan and bake for 20 minutes. Remove from
the oven and spoon the topping over the fruit until the fruit is covered.
6. Put it back into the oven for another 20 to 25 minutes , or until the
top is light brown.

A Message from our Provider:

“God loves each of us as if there were only one of us. #Augustine”

But what about issues that are not specifically mentioned in the Scriptures – how do we determine God’s will and develop conviction in those areas?... 1. “Everything is permissible for me – but not everything is beneficial” (1 Corinthians 6:12). Question 1: Is it helpful – physically, spiritually, and mentally? 2. “Everything is permissible for me’ – but I will not be mastered by anything” (1 Corinthians 6:12). Question 2: Does it bring me under its power? 3. “Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother to fall into sin, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause him to fall” (1 Corinthians 8:13). Question 3: Does it hurt others? 4. “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31). Question 4: Does it glorify God?
