We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Assurance is the fruit that grows out of the root of faith.
Stephen Charnock

Why is the wife in marriage required to be the one who submits (Eph. 5, Col. 3, Tit. 2, 1 Pet. 3)? Because God set it up this way, based on the order of creation (1 Timothy 2) and ultimately to show the primary purpose on marriage. Marriage is to be a visual picture of the Gospel. Sex before marriage is wrong because we do not have intimacy with Christ until covenant. Adultery is wrong because we are to be entirely devoted to Christ and not other idols. Divorce is wrong because God would never leave us nor would we ever want to leave Him. We are one flesh in marriage to show the oneness we have with Christ – Him in us, us in Him. We leave our parents and cleave to our spouse to show how we leave the world and cleave to Christ. Marriage is between one man and one woman to show the marriage between Christ and His bride. And we have God designed roles in marriage whereby the husband would show Christ by leading through example and sacrificial love and the wife would show the bride of Christ (the church) by trusting her husband’s spiritual leadership for her well-being. After a lengthy discourse on the marital roles, Paul in Ephesians 5 makes the point clear in verse 32. “This mystery is great [marriage]; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church. It’s all Gospel-centered.

Quinoa with Salsa

0
(0)
CATEGORY CUISINE TAG YIELD
Grains 1 servings

INGREDIENTS

1 c Quinoa
2 c Water
1 lb Jar salsa; (I used Muir Glen With Black Beans and Corn "medium")
10 oz Package of frozen corn kernels

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Rinse the quinoa, put in a small saucepan with 2 cups water. When it
boils, stir it well, reduce heat to simmer, cook for 12 to 15 minutes until
quinoa is translucent.
2. The hard part: open the jar of salsa. Add as much of it to the quinoa as
you like. I used about 3/4ths of the jar.
3. Put the frozen corn in a colander and briefly run hot water over it to
separate and slightly warm up the kernels. Add to the quinoa and stir.
This was a great hot-weather dish which I served at room temperature. The
flavor is basically determined by the salsa that you use.
