The Christian is motivated by love – his love for God and for his neighbor. The whole duty of Christian ethics is summarized by the command to love. But what is love? According to Jesus, love is keeping the commandments of God (Matt. 7:12; 22:36-40). The moral law of God shows us how to love God and our neighbor (Rom. 13:8-10). Christians believe that the laws of God against homosexual acts are given not only to reveal God’s righteousness but also for man’s own good (Deut. 10:13). The prohibitions in Scripture against homosexual acts are there not only because this behavior dishonors God, but also because it is destructive to man individually and in community. A man of love will act, to the degree to which he is able, to protect his neighbor (understood in both the singular and collective sense) from the degradation, danger, and destruction that is associated with homosexual practice (Lev. 19:17-18). The facts reveal that homosexuality is more of a death-style than a life-style. Can true Christian love ignore this reality?

INSTRUCTIONS

Mix thoroughly; stores well up to a month. Variations: substitute wheat,
rice, barley, rye, soy, or millet flakes for oats. Or, replace fruit with
dehydrated dates, apples, peaches, or cherries.
Apple muesli is my favorite variation; for one serving:
Soak 1 T rolled oats in 3 T water for 12 hrs (quick cooking oats, soaked
1/2 hr, can be substituted). In separate bowl, combine 1 T lemon juice with
3 T of the best organic yogurt available and sweeten with 1 T honey. Stir
until mix is smooth and add pre-soaked oats. Next grate 1 unpeeled apple
into bowl. Finally, sprinkle basic mix on top. Posted to fatfree digest V97
