Name: Three Ways with Pears
Ingredients: 4 Ripe pears; Red wine or red grape juice; White wine or jasmine tea; 4 tb Syrup; Mint sprigs; for decoration; Icing sugar; for decoration

We may invigorate our faith and renew our courage by reflecting that divine power has always attended the preaching of doctrine, when done in the true spirit of preaching. Great revivals have accompanied the heroic preaching of the doctrines of grace, predestination, election, and that whole lofty mountain range of doctrines upon which Jehovah sits enthroned, sovereign in grace as in all things else. God honors preaching that honors Him. There is entirely too much milk-sop preaching nowadays, trying to cajole sinners to enter upon a truce with their Maker, quit sinning, and join the church. The situation does not call for a truce, but a surrender. Let us bring out the heavy artillery of heaven, and thunder away at this stuck-up age as Whitefield, Edwards, Spurgeon and Paul did, and there will be many slain of the Lord, raised up to walk in newness of Life.

INSTRUCTIONS

Take four ripe pears, peel, core and quarter two of them and freeze them.
Carefully peel the other two pears and poach one in red wine and one in
white. If you prefer not to use wine, poach one in jasmine tea and one in
red grape juice.
Halve the pears and remove the core. Put the frozen pears in the blender or
food processor with 3 to 4 tablespoons syrup and blend until smooth.
You can make this before dinner and it will retain its soft texture in the
freezer for a couple of hours. When ready to serve, arrange the two pear
halves and some sorbet on chilled plates and serve immediately. Mint sprigs
and a dusting of icing sugar decorate the plate simply.
