Not Impressed by the Reputations of Men
“God had given me a clear revelation to go and confer with the other apostles concerning the message of grace I was preaching to the non-Jewish people. I spoke privately with those who were viewed as senior leaders of the church. I wanted to make certain that my labor and ministry for the Messiah had not been based on a false understanding of the gospel...Even the most honored and esteemed among the brothers were not able to add anything to my message. Who they are before men makes no difference to me, for God is not impressed by the reputations of men.” (Galatians 2:2, 6 TPT)
I love the apostle Paul’s mindset. He was not ‘starstruck’ by Peter, James, and John.
Whereas others would have been intimidated by the fame and reputation of the apostles in Jerusalem, Paul wasn’t.
He was led by God to go and meet them, and the only reason he wanted to speak with them was to confirm that he was preaching the correct Gospel.
Paul valued praise from God, not the praises of men.
If God is not impressed by the reputations of men, then as His children we shouldn’t be impressed too.
There is no need to feel intimidated when speaking to someone with a glorified title.
“When he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, they were watching him.” (Luke 14:1 WEB)
Jesus went to a party where the most respected Pharisees were, and He still spoke straightforwardly, without mincing His words. He was not afraid to speak the truth, even if it offended reputable men.
“He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them, “When you are invited by anyone to a marriage feast, don’t sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him, and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, ‘Make room for this person.’ Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place. But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.” He also said to the one who had invited him, “When you make a dinner or a supper, don’t call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back. But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind; and you will be blessed, because they don’t have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous.”” (Luke 14:7-14 WEB)
Jesus’ words above are essentially meaning that the guests at the party were pretentious hypocrites, all trying to curry favor with the rich and famous. Think about how offensive these words would be to most people at the party.
We are a new creation in Christ in contrast to the children of Adam. We are the new and improved version 2.0. Children of Adam are transgressors, whereas children of God are royal priests and heirs of His estate.
Even the wealthiest unbeliever is only like a piece of firewood, due to be thrown in the unquenchable fires of Hell when he dies.
As for speaking to fellow believers, God’s word says that we are one in Christ and that titles don’t matter—we are all of equal standing. We are all saved by one Lord, born-again of the same Spirit, and none of us earned this salvation—it’s all by grace through faith.
“For you are all children of God, through faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” (Galatians 3:26-28 WEB)
Don’t get me wrong, Paul respected the office of apostle which Peter, James, and John held. These positions are given by God. Paul also teaches us to respect the governing bodies and submit to them for the Lord’s sake.
We should also respect our leaders in church for the sake of the offices that they hold since they are ordained by God. Give them proper honor for the sake of the office. Submit to those who have the authority over us, as this authority was given by God.
However, we don’t need to fear reputable men. You don’t have to shrink back, feeling like you are somehow less important, less worthy, or less loved. God loves you even as (as much as) He loves Jesus—that’s how important you are to Him!
If people abuse their office of authority and mistreat you, they themselves will be accountability for it before Jesus. Maybe their eternal rewards will be given to you instead, to restore you for the injustice.
“Jesus answered, “You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has greater sin.”” (John 19:11 WEB)
No one can harm you when God is protecting you. Men have no power of their own. Therefore, be bold and have confidence in Christ. Straighten your shoulders and back, and raise your chin up. Be set free from the fear of reputations of men!
I shared more about the time when Jesus went to that Pharisee’s party in my book “Messiah’s Miracles: The Power of Having Faith in Jesus Christ”. Did you know that He healed a man with dropsy there? There is a spectacular lesson in it. See God’s Grace and love towards you in all the 37 recorded miracles of Jesus Christ, and let faith arise for your own supernatural breakthroughs: https://bit.ly/messiahs-miracles

It’s easy to get personal, hurt and offended when people deem you and your job as #nonessential. Artistes fall into the broader category of #artists, which refer to people whose work are involved with the arts. To come up tops with an overwhelming 70% is not a mean feat to begin with in the non-essential awards poll, albeit it being a generalised and simplified one in very testing times by the coronavirus! 😅 Not surprising, considering we need more scientists for the vaccine and mathematicians for the statistics, and we probably don’t need artists to paint a nicer picture for us now right? 😂
Simply put, you’re not top of the food chain, nor do you form the base of the pyramid, no problem with that. And one should not let one’s vanity and self-importance get in the way of the realisation that no one is indispensable in this world! 😨 Well, on a lighter note, it just means you’re put into the same group as #bubbletea, dramas and soap operas, cafes, holidays, as opposed to #toiletpaper, supermarkets, sanitisers and masks (in these times). You’re not common staple and basic daily necessities, you’re perhaps another level, you’re #luxurygoods (if that makes you feel any better about yourself). 🤣
Let us not take away the focus of the article which essentially, is to highlight the importance of and to show our appreciation to our #frontlineworkers in this time of the pandemic. 😊
Health, money, food, love, happiness, laughter, well-being. Can you say which is essential and which is non-essential? You could probably rate which is perhaps more or less essential but yet it’s subjective to person, time and place. A developed and mature society will begin to realise and appreciate the importance of #culture and #character, that it starts from #within and forms its very #basis. There’s #survival and livelihood, the bread and butter, day to day. And there’s also #life — the growth, meaning, significance, the #soul and #beauty of it. One cannot be devoid of the other. 😘

🍞美國生活用語:食物篇又來了──與麵包🥖 bread有關的諺語
還記得乳製品的英文怎麼說嗎😏 可以在文章裡面找找看喔!
1⃣ Bread is the staff of life.
2⃣ Man does not live by bread alone.
3⃣ earn one’s daily bread
4⃣ take the bread out of sb.’s mouth
5⃣ break bread
--
After covering dairy products, it’s time to move on to another kind of food—bread. Bread has long been a staple of the Western diet since ancient times, so of course it has made its way into all kinds of proverbs and idioms.
聊完乳製品之後,我們來聊聊另一種食品:麵包。自古以來,麵包一直是西方飲食不可或缺的主食,所以跟麵包相關的諺語與生活用語想必也不少。
Let’s start with a proverb that has its origins in the Bible: 1⃣ Bread is the staff of life. If you’re picturing someone using a baguette as a staff to walk with, it may give you a sense of the proverb’s meaning: bread is what supports us in our lives, or provides us with sustenance. But bread here is also a symbol of all food, so the real meaning is that one must eat in order to survive. Ex: I know you’re busy, but don’t forget to eat—bread is the staff of life.
先來看一個源自《聖經》的諺語:Bread is the staff of life.(麵包是生命的拐杖。)想像一下用法國麵包當做拐杖走路的樣子,大概就能理解這句諺語的意思:麵包是支持生活的必需品,供給我們營養。不過麵包在這裡也是象徵所有食物之意,所以真正的意思是「民以食為天」。如:I know you’re busy, but don’t forget to eat—bread is the staff of life.(我知道你很忙,但別忘了吃飯啊,民以食為天。)
Another proverb with Biblical origins: 2⃣Man does not live by bread alone. Here, bread means “food and shelter.” So the proverb means that beyond their physical needs, people also need mental or spiritual sustenance. Ex: He may be wealthy, but man does not live by bread alone.
另一個諺語也是出自《聖經》:Man does not live by bread alone.(人活著不只是為了溫飽。)bread在這句話中指的是「食物與住所」。因此,這個諺語要人們超越生理需求、滋養心靈。如:He may be wealthy, but man does not live by bread alone.(他或許很富有,但是人活著不是只為了溫飽。)
Since bread is a symbol for sustenance, there are also idioms like 3⃣ “earn one’s daily bread,” which means “make a living.” Ex: The man earns his daily bread as a taxi driver. 4⃣ And “take the bread out of sb.’s mouth” means to deprive them of their means of living. Ex: Lowering wages would be taking the bread out of workers’ mouths.
因為麵包是食物的象徵,所以也有如earn one’s daily bread這樣的片語,指「維持生計」。如:The man earns his daily bread as a taxi driver.(這個男人當計程車司機維持生計。)而take the bread out of sb.’s mouth則是指「搶某人飯碗」,如:Lowering wages would be taking the bread out of workers’ mouths.(減薪對員工而言是剝奪了他們的飯碗。)
5⃣ And finally there’s “break bread.” Can you guess what it means? It means to have a meal. In the old days, a family would share a loaf of bread at each meal, and everyone would break off pieces to eat. Ex: It’s been a long time since I broke bread with Michael.
最後來看看break bread這個短語。猜猜看,這是什麼意思?答案是「吃飯」。古時候的家庭,每餐都有一條麵包分給全家人,每個人會掰一塊麵包來吃。如:It’s been a long time since I broke bread with Michael.(我已經很久沒跟麥可吃頓飯了。)

bread time meaning 在 internationally ME Youtube 的最佳解答
Azabujuban in Tokyo has many local street shops that sell Japanese sweets, Japanese bread and Japanese snacks :)
A lot of these local shops that sell Japanese sweets have been running for over 100 years and are popular with the locals due to their originality.
A cool fact about Azabujuban is that the anime, Sailor moon was mostly based off this area as the writer lived in the Azabujuban area :D
There are a lot of places in Tokyo to get Japanese sweets, bread and snacks but I find areas like the Azabujuban area much more fascinating because of the history of the long running shops.
When you talk to the shop owners, you can tell they don't purely do the business just for the money. Rather, it's the deep meaning behind the shops history and the relationship they have with the local community.
I had a fun time trying all sorts of Japanese sweets and exploring the area with my lovely friends from the "Life Where I'm From" channel - See more of Greg, Aiko and Shin here :D

We've wanted to try making Schneeballen for 20 years. For a long time we didn't know which country this pastry came from, but now we've learned for the first time that it can be eaten in Austria and Germany. Schneeballen seems to have the meaning of a snowball, so it's a pastry that is just right for this season. It might even be fun to take advantage of the cute round shape to decorate it in the style of a Christmas ornament. Because a specialty frying mold is expensive, we used a "ball-shaped strainer," normally used when you strain things like soup stock. It's a fried pastry, but the whole family praised it for not having a heavy flavor.
*Recipe* (Makes 3 round balls with a diameter of 6.5 cm)
1. Into your food processor (you can also knead by hand in a bowl), add 65g of all-purpose flour (if you don't have any, you can substitute half bread flour and half cake flour), 7g of powdered sugar (3/4 tbsp), and a pinch of salt. Mix ingredients together lightly, as if you're gently shaking it.
2. Add 3 medium-sized eggs (about 60g when they're still in the shell) and rum 5g (1 tsp) ,a small amount of vanilla extract, then knead.
3. Once you have finished kneading it, cut the dough (ours was 122g) into three equal pieces, and make them into balls.
4. Cover it with plastic wrap or something similar, and let it rest for 20 minutes.
5. Lightly cover the surface of the table with bread flour, then take the results from step #4 and stretch them thin using a rolling pin.
6. Cut them into slits with a roller cutter, about 1 cm wide. Try to make it so that they are not cut off completely from each other, but still have about 1 cm from the edge left over.
7. With your hand pick up every other piece, and then stretch and place them as in the video.
8. Take your thinly sliced parchment paper (33 cm long) and fold it in two. As shown in the video, tuck the parchment paper into the dough, then loosely form it into a round shape. The parchment paper is easy to take off after it's been fried, so tuck it in tightly.
9. Put the results of step #8 in the ball-shaped strainer, and close firmly.
10. Put the results of step #9 in a whisking machine, and make it so it does not move.
11. In oil heated to 180 degrees, stir the results of step #9 around, while frying for 2 minutes.
12. Remove the ball-shaped strainer from the whisking machine, and then remove the Schneeballen from the ball-shaped strainer. (It will be hot so please wear oven mitts.)
13. Once it has completely cooled, sprinkle it with powdered sugar.
14. Enjoy decorating it with a ribbon.
15. When you eat it, you can garnish it by whisking together a mixture with a ratio of 200 ml of fresh cream for each 20g of sugar.
Note: A ball-shaped strainer with a diameter of 6.5 cm (144 cubic cm) was just the right amount for 40g of the dough. Please adjust the amount of dough in accordance to the size of the ball-shaped strainer.

Kasutera (Castella) is a very popular Japanese sponge cake made from a few ingredients.
It is a very typical Oyatsu (snack) in Japan :)
I am going to bake it in a rice cooker, but of course you can bake it in an oven!
I don't recommend baking any kind of cake in a really good rice cooker (it can damage your pot), so please try if you don't mind it!!!
FYI from Wikipedia:
Now a specialty of Nagasaki, Kasutera was brought by way of Portuguese merchants in the 16th century. The name is derived from Portuguese Pão de Castela, meaning "bread from Castile". Castella cake is usually sold in long boxes, with the cake inside being approximately 27 cm long. It is somewhat similar to Madeira cake, also associated with Portugal, but its closest relative is pão-de-ló, also a Portuguese cake.
There are similar types of sponge cakes named after the same fashion, in French: Pain d'Espagne, in Italian: Pan di Spagna, in Portuguese: Pão de Espanha, in Romanian: Pandişpan, in Bulgarian: пандишпан, in Greek: Pantespani, in Turkish: Pandispanya (Castile is a former kingdom of Spain comprising its central provinces, thus Pain d'Espagne and other variants are quasi-synonymous to "bread from Castile").
---------------------------------
Kasutera
Difficulty: Very Easy
Time: 2hrs (incl. cooking time)
Number of servings: N/A
Ingredients:
3 eggs
90g (3.2oz.) sugar
45g (1.6oz.) cake flour*
45g (1.6oz.) bread flour (strong flour)*
2 tbsp. milk
1 tbsp. honey
butter
*you can use 90g (3.2oz.) all purpose flour instead
Directions:
1. Warm the milk in a saucepan. Add honey and mix well.
2. Place the eggs and sugar in a large bowl. Beat them with an electric mixer until white and fluffy.
3. Add 1 in 2. Place the bowl over a pan of hot water. Mix until the batter continuously drips back into the bowl like a ribbon when you scoop it up.
4. Sift in flour and gently cut through the mixture with a spatula until combined.
5. Butter the pot of the rice cooker and pour in the mixture. Drop the pot lightly on the counter to raise the air bubbles out of the batter. Place the pot in the rice cooker, close the rice cooker, then press the button to start. *When it is half-baked, press the button to start (cook) once again.
6. When it's done, let cool on a wire rack until warm. Then place it in a plastic bag (to keep it moist) to cool completely. It tastes even better the next day after the flavors have settled!
How to bake in the oven:
Bake in an oven at 170C (338F) for 10 minutes. Then turn down to 140C (284F) and bake for 40-45 minutes.
