\"Family\"<\/a>The Dining Room<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

From there\u00a0I took my Guest into the dining room. the room of appetites and desires. I spent a lot of time and hard work here trying to satisfy my wants. I was sure that Jesus would find plenty here to entice Him.<\/span><\/p>\n

I said to Him, “This is a favorite room. I am quite sure You will be pleased with what we serve.’<\/span><\/p>\n

He seated Himself at the table with me and asked, “What is on the menu for dinner?” “Well,” I said, “my favorite dishes: money, academic degrees and stocks, with newspaper articles of fame and fortune as side dishes.” These were the things I liked – secular fare.<\/span><\/p>\n
