Green Apple Soup...Curious???

Can you spot the green apple?

This is the green apple soup. My housemate, Paul, made this soup out of curiousity..mmhmmm..well,it is actually because the fruit was so sour that he regretted buying it so it was an attempt to destroy all the fruits as soon as possible..haha..It was a great night especially with the word of God.

The old covenant sets a distance between us and God. When God met with His chosen one, Moses, He told him to take off his sandals for he stands on holy ground. God even set boundaries for the people of God; He prohibits them from setting foot on Mount Sinai. Even in regards to the tabernacle of God, only the priest could enter the Holy of Holies once a year. This shows us that God is serious about the loathsome sins that is setting us apart from Him. However, we rejoice knowing that the new convenant has bring us the nearness of God. We are no longer considered as lepers. (Lepers are the outcast of the society because of their skin disease. It is true to us that sins cover us entirely like a deadly disease that rots our souls). Jesus came and with Him, the covenant of grace. Those who receives His free gift of salvation are no longer considered lepers but children of God. Praise the Lord for the works He has done. We are now able to come near to God through the justification of the blood of Jesus Christ. Amen.
