Do you talk to others about our depraved nature and our desperate need for salvation in Jesus Christ? Do you say that you are no better than they are by nature; that we are all, apart from grace, sinners with a terrible record, which is a legal problem, as well as a bad heart, which is a moral problem? Do you talk to them about the dreadful character of sin; that sin is something that stems back to our tragic fall in Adam and affects every part of us, so dominating our mind, heart, will, and conscience that we are slaves to it? Do you describe sin as moral rebellion against God? Do you say that the wages of sin is death, now and for all eternity?

INSTRUCTIONS

I made these two recipes over the weekend - they're from Sundays at
Moosewood cookbook, with appropriate changes to make them. I really like
exotic recipes so I enjoy this cookbook a lot - my husband just loves these
2 recipes - he keeps teasing me that all they need to be perfect is some
chunks of lamb! Anyway, here they are:
Sate the onions and garlic in your favorite sauteeing medium until onions
are translucent. Add the thyme, potatoes, green beans, bell pepper, and
tomatoes and cook on medium-high heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the vegetable stock and the brine from the artichokes and simmer,
covered, until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
Stir in the halved artichoke hearts, the black olives (if you use them),
and a pinch of saffron. Continue to simmer gently for another 5 to 10
minutes. Add the lemon juice, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste.
Serve with bread or on couscous (also suggests to sprinkle with chopped
almonds).

“When Holy God draws near in true revival, people come under terrible conviction of sin. The outstanding feature of spiritual awakening has been the profound consciousness of the Presence and holiness of God. #Henry Blackaby”
