I do not believe that any man can preach the gospel who does not preach the law. The law is the needle, and you cannot draw the silken thread of the gospel through a man's heart unless you first send the needle of the law to make way for it. If men do not understand the law, they will not feel that they are sinners. And if they are not consciously sinners, they will never value the sin offering. There is no healing a man till the law has wounded him, no making him alive till the law has slain him.

C.H. Spurgeon

INSTRUCTIONS

Halve Chayote lengthwise. Place halves in enough cold salted water to
cover. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes
or until tender. Drain.
When cool enough to handle, remove seed. Scoop out and reserve pulp to
within 1/4 inch of skin. Invert shells; set aside to drain. Chop pulp,
drain. If necessary, squeeze pulp between paper towels to remove excess
liquid. Set aside.
Meanwhile, for stuffing, in a large skillet cook mushrooms, sweet pepper,
onion and garlic in hot margarine till tender but not brown. Remove from
heat. Stir in Chayote pulp, toasted bread crumbs, 1/3 cup of the parmesan
cheese, eggs, cilantro, salt and papper. Dissolve the bouillon granules in
the water; stir into stuffing. Spoon stuffing into Chayote shells.
Place shells in a 2 quart square baking dish. Cover and bake in a 350
degree oven about 25 minutes or till heated through. Sprinkle with
remaining parmesan cheese. Bake for 3 to 5 minutes more till cheese melts.
Makes 4 servings.
* To toast bread crumbs, spread them in a single layer in a shallow baking
pan. Bake in a 350 degree oven about 8 minutes or till toasted.
NOTES : Chayote (chaw-YOTE-ee) is a pear shaped squash with a moist pulp
that tasts like a cross between an apple and a cucumber. Look for
small, firm, unblemished chayotes and store them in a plastic bag
in your refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

A Message from our Provider:

“That man is truly happy who can say of all his substances, be it little or be it much, ‘The Lord gave it to me’. #Charles Spurgeon.”

Despite our seemingly casual attitude toward it, slander is a particularly destructive sin. Writing in the 1828 edition of his dictionary, Noah Webster defined slander as “a false tale or report maliciously uttered, and tending to injure the reputation of another by lessening him in the esteem of his fellow citizens, by exposing him to impeachment and punishment, or by impairing his means of living.” Slander strikes at people’s dignity, defames their character, and destroys their reputation – their most priceless worldly asset (Proverbs 22:1; Ecclesiastes 7:1).

John MacArthur

The church cannot be expected to do its work effectively if their followers are not loyally supporting the leaders. It’s a matter of fact that we’re often slow to realize to this day that effective leadership in the church of Christ demands effective following. If we’re continually critical of them that are set over us, small wonder if they’re unable to perform the miracles that we demand of them. If we bear in mind the work’s sake, we may be more inclined to esteem them very highly in love.
