Name: Witch's Brew
Ingredients: 3 pt Purple grape juice; 1 1/2 pt Club soda; Grapes; Apples

The name of Jesus is not a magic incantation that causes demons to flee from before us. The seven sons of Sceva are an example of what can happen when people presume an authority they have not been given (Acts 19:13–16). Even Michael the archangel did not rebuke Satan in his own power but said, “The Lord rebuke you!” (Jude 1:9). When we start talking to the devil, we run the risk of being led astray as Eve was (Genesis 3:1–7). Our focus should be on God, not demons; we speak to Him, not them.

INSTRUCTIONS

Mix the grape juice and soda in a pitcher.  Halve the grapes and take out
the seeds.  Cut the apple into small chunks. Float the fruit in the brew
just before serving; by magic, the grapes and apples will look just like
eyes and teeth. Make a swizzle broomstick from a straw and black paper cut
into a fringe.

A Message from our Provider:

“Conviction is not repentance; conviction leads to repentance. But you can be convicted without repentance. #Martyn Lloyd-Jones”

And if God does require the sinner – dead in sin – that he should take the first step, then He requireth just that which renders salvation as impossible under the gospel as ever it was under the law, seeing man is as unable to believe as he is to obey, and is just as much without power to come to Christ as he is without power to go to heaven without Christ. The power must be given to him of the Spirit. He lieth dead in sin: the Spirit must quicken him. He is bound hand and foot, fettered by transgression; the Spirit must cut his bonds, and then he will leap to liberty. God must come and dash the iron bars out of their sockets, and then he can escape afterwards, but unless the first thing be done for him, he must perish as surely under the gospel as he would have done under the law.

C.H. Spurgeon
