Roast Tenderloin Of Beef

In seeking after holiness we are not so much seeking after a thing as we are seeking a Person. The blessings of the gospel – election, justification, sanctification, glorification, and all the rest – have been deposited in no other treasury but Christ. We don’t just want holiness. We want the Holy One in whom we have been counted holy and are now being made holy. To run hard after holiness is another way of running hard after God.

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 525 degrees F.  Pat meat dry. In a small bowl combine
rosemary, thyme, garlic, pepper  and salt. Rub mixture onto meat and
arrange meat on a rack in a  roasting pan. Roast meat for 45 to 50
minutes, or until a meat  thermometer inserted in the thickest part of
the meat registers 130  to 140 F. for medium- rare. Transfer meat to a
cutting board and let  rest, loosely covered, for 10 minutes.  Make the
sauce: In a saucepan combine the shallots, 2/3 cup of the  Madeira, the
thyme, rosemary and bay leaf and reduce the mixture to  1/3 cup. Add
the stock and tomato paste and simmer, stirring  occasionally, for 20
minutes.  In a small bowl combine the remaining Madeira with the
arrowroot until  smooth and whisk it into the sauce. Simmer for 5
minutes more, or  until lightly thickened. Keep warm. Before serving,
strain into a  sauceboat.  Yield: 8 servings Posted to MC-Recipe Digest
