Chocolate Cake (vegan) – We Love God!

Why are we called in 'The Lord's Prayer' to ask for what appears to be additional forgiveness? One, because sin destroys. Confession helps our soul heal from the guilt we incurred. Two, because every sin we commit, though it does not forfeit our salvation, breaks fellowship with our heavenly Father. Three, because our forgiveness came at a great cost - the death of God's very Son. Therefore we ought to take sin seriously and carefully recognize the specific areas we are falling short. Four, because true believers are committed to repentance. Confession of sin is important because without acknowledging the error of sin, we will never take the necessary steps toward what God ultimately desires, which is repentance (turning from the sin altogether).

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat over to 190 Celcius (360? F). Grease and flower a 20cm cake
tine. In a mixing bow combine flour, sugar, cocoa, bicarbonate soda
and salt. Make sure you get all the lumps out of the cocoa. Make a
well in the center of the dry ingredients and add vanilla, vinegar  and
apple sauce. Gradually stir in water. Avoid over stirring. Bake  for 30
minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.  Cool in tin on rack for
10 minutes then transfer cake to the rack to  cool. Sift icing sugar
over top and serve.  Will freeze well.  Notes: Using apple sauce seems
to increase the cooking time so you  may need up to 50 minutes to get
it cooked through. Try to avoid over  cooking as the cake is yummiest
when still moist and is fairly boring  when dry through. For that
special treat, add grated chocolate to the  mixture before cooking.
