Peppery Coconut Baked Fish With Chutney Sauce

The oldest and most revered tactic for avoiding the misery of guilt is religion. This tactic may be the most deceptive because it comes closest to the truth. It recognizes what the intellectual and physical strategies generally ignore: that the ultimate cause of guilt is that there is a righteous God whose will for his creatures is ignored or defied. It recognizes that under every pang of conscience in the human soul there is the silent, often unexpressed conviction, 'I have gone against God.' The means that religion has developed to deal with this guilt is to try to placate or appease God with good works or religious ritual. Religious people know they owe God a great debt for their disobedience. But they often make the terrible mistake of thinking they can pay it back through good works and the performance of religious duties.

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat over to 425 degrees and pour oil into 13x9 baking pan (or spray
with Pam); tilt pan to coat evenly. In shallow bowl, mix butter,
orange juice, lemon juice, garlic powder, ginger, red pepper flakes.
Salt and pepper if desired. In shallow bowl, combine coconut and  bread
crumbs. Dip fish in butter mixture and coat with bread crumb  mixture.
Bake at 425 for 5 minutes. Turn fillets over; sprinkle with  remaining
mixture. Bake an additional 10-15 minutes or until fish is  golden
brown and flakes easily. Mix all sauce ingredients. Serve  sauce over
fish, garnish with lemon and parsley.  Variation: 1-1/2 lbs of peeled,
deveined, butterflied shrimp can be  substituted. Combine the butter,
orange juice, lemon juice, garlic  powder, ginger and pepper flakes in
a bowl. Add 1 tsp of coconut  extract if you don't have coconut. Put
the butterflied shrimp in the  butter mixture and transfer to plain
bread crumbs and toss to coat.  Turn shrimp into a "Pam" sprayed pan,
separating the ones that  "hunked" together, then into the 425 oven for
5 minutes...flip with a  spatula and another 10 minutes in the oven. If
you don't have  chutney, add extra lemon juice...it turns out fine.

The sword of the Spirit is first of all a defensive weapon, capable of deflecting the blows of an opponent. It is the believer’s supreme weapon of defense against the onslaughts of Satan. Unlike the shield, however, which gives broad and general protection, the sword can deflect an attack only if it is handled precisely and skillfully. It must parry the enemy weapon exactly where the thrust is made. When Jesus was tempted by Satan in the wilderness, His defense for each temptation was a passage of Scripture that precisely contradicted the devil’s word (Matt. 4:4, 7, 10). The Christian who does not know God's Word well cannot use it well. Satan will invariably find out where we are ignorant or confused and attack us there. Scripture is not a broadsword (rhomphaia) to be waved indiscriminately, but a dagger to be used with great precision.
