Name: Romaine And Fruit Salad W/citrus Poppy Seed Vinaigrette
Ingredients: 1/4 c Orange juice; 2 tb White wine vinegar; 2 Green onions, chopped; 1/3 c Sugar; 1/4 ts Salt; 1/3 c Oil; 1 tb Poppy seed; 8 c Torn romaine lettuce (about 2/3 head); 1 c Cubed honeydew melon; 1 c Cubed cantaloupe; 1 c Halved strawberries

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!
