Many sympathized with the homosexuals and had included them in their everyday life, much the same as homosexuals are heroes and adored today.<br /><br />Satan stated “Nonserviam” “I will not serve” when God previewed Jesus Christ to the angels in Heaven.<br /><br />He did not completely reject God, he reject the second part of the Holy Trinity.<br /><br />Many people today, besides the Jews, reject Jesus Christ.<br /><br />Freemasons have taken Lucifer’s side. They will not serve. But they will work with Satan to destroy the Kingdom of Heaven.<br /><br />All the while claiming to believe in the Supreme Being.<br /><br />Catholics are prohibited from becoming Freemasons.<br /><br />I learned this from my traditional Catholic Catechisms, circa 1950s.<br /><br />*Pablo the Mexicanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09384415590309803327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-21640650989532857312010-09-14T06:43:08.133-07:002010-09-14T06:43:08.133-07:00Some thoughts on why God wouldn't destroy any ...Some thoughts on why God wouldn't destroy any of his creatures:<br />1. Even the creatures who have chosen to reject God still have a role to play in the plan of salvation (everything works for the good of those who love God - even temptation).<br />2. Existence is good; evil is something that cannot totally take away that good; so if God were to annihilate any of his creatures, he would be annihilating something good, which I think would be contrary to his nature.<br />3. God did not create anything in order to destroy it. I think Scripture says something like that (Wisdom?)RJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13871618901190898384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-45101948298027045252010-09-13T19:54:19.934-07:002010-09-13T19:54:19.934-07:00dre-

Of course God wouldn't tempt us, but unfortunately, the battle for our souls is not one-sided.Maeananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-8061765454319513452010-09-08T02:54:12.513-07:002010-09-08T02:54:12.513-07:00Sister, here is a red cake that you might feel vir...Sister, here is a red cake that you might feel virtuous eating:<br /><br />Beet Chocolate Cake<br /><br />2 cups sugar<br />2 cups flour<br />1/2 tsp salt<br />2 tsp baking powder<br />1 tsp baking soda<br />4 oz unsweetened chocolate<br />4 eggs<br />1/4 cup oil<br />3 cups shredded beets<br /><br />Heat oven to 325 F. Grease 2 8 inch cake pans or a 13x9 sheet pan. Whisk dry ingredients together. Melt chocolate. Cool and add to eggs & oil. Shred beets. Mix flour mixture alternately with the chocolate mixture and the beets. Pour into pans. Bake until knife is clean when placed in center of cake, 40-50 minutes. Cool & frost.<br /><br />This makes a nice dense moist cake (like a carrot cake) and no one can guess it contains beets! Just think of the lovely anthocyanins and other phytochemicals! <br /><br />You could just dust it with a little powdered sugar, but I frosted it with this:<br /><br />Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting<br /><br />Cream 8 oz cream cheese and 1/4 cup butter till combined. (I use Neufchatel cheese, so it's a little lower fat). Add 1 tsp vanilla. Add 4 cups confectioner's sugar and 1/2-1 cup cocoa powder (till the consistency is spreadable). <br /><br />I hope this isn't too much temptation. It really doesn't taste like beets!drenoreply@blogger.com
