Over the past few weeks, Roger has noticed more and more often how people seem to pick and choose their religions, their faith, or their behaviors. They do what they feel they need to, or more often WANT to do. It is not a new tendency.
This lesson on Baking a Cake is intended to help listeners recognize that in order to meet a purpose, there are things to do, directions to follow, and instructions we need if we want something to come out a certain way. This methodology is true for cakes and religion.
- Depending on the translation, there are around 30 mentions of “cake” in the Bible!
- Try to find them all!
We look at the top 20 “most delicious cakes” and we look at the top 20 most popular religions in the world. Roger draws a comparison that is pretty easy to see between these two very different subjects.
We also look at what needs to be in a recipe and what can’t be in one in order for the final product to be as intended.
Ultimately, WHO is the one asking for a cake, and what do THEY get? Likewise, WHO is asking for pure religion, and what do THEY get?
Hopefully you enjoy the visuals, and they will help you want a cake, but also think more soberly about what religion is, and what it is not.
Recordings and slides from Roger’s lessons are below, and as always, if you feel there is anything in the lessons you disagree with, question, want to discuss, or want to study, PLEASE reach out to us privately via form on this site or on our Facebook page through Messenger.
