Stars And Stripes Cake – We Love God!

In our wealthy and materialistic society, Christians often tend to trivialize covetousness, but Paul calls it idolatry, and lists it as one of a number of sins that are bringing the wrath of God “upon the sons of disobedience” (Colossians 3:5-6). Concerning the love (or coveting) of money, Paul told Timothy that it was a “root of all kinds of evil” (1 Timothy 6:10). John was speaking of covetousness when he wrote, “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him” (1 John 2:15). “Do not be deceived,” Paul wrote to the church at Corinth. No covetous person “will inherit the kingdom of God” (1 Corinthians 6:9-10) (Jim Elliff and Daryl Wingerd).

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and set a rack in the middle level.  Butter
and flour a 9 by 13 by 2-inch pan.  Beat the butter by machine with the
sugar. Beat in eggs one at a  time. Beat in the extract. Mix the flour
with the salt and baking  soda and add it alternately to the batter
with the sour cream,  beginning and ending with the flour. Scrape down
bowl and beater  often during this stage of mixing.  Scrape the batter
into the prepared pan and bake the cake about 40  minutes, or until it
is well risen and deep golden and a toothpick  inserted in the center
emerges clean.  Cool the cake in the pan on a rack for a few minutes,
then unmold and  cool completely. Wrap cake tightly in plastic wrap for
storage.  For the whipped cream, combine all ingredients and whip on
medium  speed until stiff.  To finish the cake, place the layer on a
cardboard or platter and  spread with the cream. Arrange the
blueberries in the upper left  corner of the cake, as on the starred
field of a flag, then use the  raspberries or strawberries to make the
red stripes, leaving stripes  of uncovered whipped cream between the
stripes of berries. Chill cake  until just before serving.  Yield: one
