We Love God!

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

What is the worst the opposition can do? Kill you – though doubtless that will occur, at least for now, in this country. But even if that were case, the Scripture strips away that excuse citing that death for the Christian is the greatest event possible because only death has the ability to break the seal and usher you into inexpressible glory. Could the problem be that we simply have a too great a fascination with the things going on here and not enough desire to spend eternity with Christ? If we really “prefer” to be “home with the Lord” (2 Cor. 5:8), intimate, personal, visible communion with Christ that far exceeds our communion with Christ here (Heb. 11:10, 13), then we must be “absent from the body” (2 Cor. 5:8). In other words, we must die. Therefore death from that perspective doesn’t sound so bad. Only death can release me from “absent from the Lord” to be “home with the Lord.” So the worst the enemy can do is send me to paradise!

My favorite explanation of idolatry is John Calvin’s: “The evil in our desire typically does not lie in what we want but that we want it too much” (W ayne Grudem and Dennis Rainey).

    Chinese Chinese, Sauces, Loo 2 Cups

    INGREDIENTS

    2 c Water
    2 oz Dry sherry or rice wine
    3 tb Dark soy
    2 tb Brown sugar
    4 Slice ginger
    1 Star anise
    2 Scallions
    1 Slice dried tangerine peel

    INSTRUCTIONS

    To use these sauces: bring them to a slow boil in a large kettle. Add
meat or poultry, return to slow boil, reduce heat to simmer, and cook
until done. Drain meat and serve with some sauce (optionally
thickened with cornstarch-water) on the side. Save and reuse leftover
sauce, which gets richer with each use. Leftover sauce should be
salted lightly, boiled a few minutes, skimmed, and cooled before
storage in the refrigerator. If it is to be kept a long time it
should be boiled and skimmed once in awhile.
