Welcome to my Shop Small Business Saturday post. Many people own small businesses. Supporting these local businesses in your area helps these people compete against the larger companies.

Shop Small Business Saturday

On 27 November 2010, American Express in partner ship with the National Trust for Historic Preservation originated the idea along with Boston Mayor Tom Menino and the Roslindale Village Main Street. Social media sites like Twitter and Facebook also helped kick start the initiative that is designed to have consumers support their local small businesses with their holiday purchases.

Small businesses are the back bone of the US and Canadian economies. In the US, there are close to 32 million small businesses registered. There were around 1.5 million registered small businesses in Canada in 2019.

Small businesses have a large impact on local communities. The business owner pays rent or owns a piece of property for the business. Local taxes are added to the local municipalities with brick and mortar stores. Local people are hired to work at these small businesses.

Recently my wife Patricia needed some potatoes for her meal preparation. Instead of driving 9 miles one way to the closest large grocery store, I decided to investigate the local grocery store where we live in a small town. I found what we needed and did a walk through so I would be aware of what our local small store has.

In the USA and Canada, many of the local merchants depend on local citizens to be consumers. Do your best to help these neighbors and take your business to their shops instead of buying from huge billion dollar businesses.

I take Saturday off from work and business to spend time at Church with my wife Patricia and friends from church. We like to study the Bible, worship God, enjoy a fellowship dinner together and go hiking or visiting people that are unable to attend worship.

6. Add the blackberry pie filling to the pre-baked crust, sprinkle with the remaining almond oat crumbles and return to the oven for another 10 minutes.

7. Remove from the oven and let cool on the counter for 20 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

Vegan Carrot Apple Cake is a healthy delicious dessert you can enjoy any time. Substitute butter, milk, sugar for plant-based alternatives.

Vegan Carrot Apple Cake Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

2 Cups Organic Whole Wheat Flour
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
½ Teaspoon Cinnamon
¼ Teaspoon Salt

Wet Ingredients

3 Vegan Eggs ***
2 Cups Shredded Organic Carrots
1 Zest From Organic Orange
½ Cup Organic Olive Oil
½ Cup Organic Maple Syrup
¼ Cup Organic Apple Sauce
¼ Cup Fresh Squeezed Organic Orange Juice
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract

***Prepare 3 Tablespoons Of Flaxseed Flour and Mix In 9 Cups Of Water. Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes so it will gel.

When you need eggs in a recipe, substitute 1 Tablespoon of Flaxseed Flour and 3 Tablespoons of Water for 1 Egg. To get the most nutrients, Patricia says you should buy whole flax seeds and grind them into a flour with your Vitamix or Blendtec when you are making the cake.

Optional Ingredients
½ Cup Cranberries
½ Cup Walnuts

Vegan Carrot Apple Cake Directions

After your Flaxseed Flour has gelled, mix the other wet ingredients except your two cups of Shredded Carrots in a mixing bowl. Now take the dry ingredients and mix them in a separate bowl. Pour your dry ingredients over your wet ingredients. Now mix the two cups of Shredded Carrots and optional Cranberries and Walnuts and mix your cake ingredients thoroughly.

Now lightly oil with a kitchen brush your muffin pans with organic olive oil. My wife Patricia found the silicone muffin liners in the local Target store. She just told me that you can find these silicone liners in Home Goods, Marshalls, and Ross Stores. You do not need to oil the silicone liners as the cake batter will not stick to the silicone liner.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and cook your cake for 20-25 minutes. Put a toothpick in the middle of one of your cup cakes and see if the cake is cooked.

Parable Of the Talents Matthew 25 is a message that was given by brother Ben Wolfswinkel on Sabbath 28 August 2021 at Cedar Creek Seventh-day Adventist Christian Church.

You can listen to the audio recording on my Sound Cloud Channel.

Parable Of the Talents Matthew 25

The Parable of the Talents
14 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a man traveling into a far country, who called his own servants and entrusted his goods to them. 15 To one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to every man according to his ability. And immediately he took his journey. 16 He who had received the five talents went and traded with them and made another five talents. 17 So also, he who had received two gained another two. 18 But he who had received one went and dug in the ground and hid his master’s money.

19 “After a long time the master of those servants came and settled accounts with them. 20 He who had received five talents came and brought the other five talents, saying, ‘Master, you entrusted to me five talents. Look, I have gained five talents more.’

21 “His master said to him, ‘Well done, you good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things. I will make you ruler over many things. Enter the joy of your master.’

22 “He who had received two talents also came and said, ‘Master, you entrusted me with two talents. See, I have gained two more talents besides them.’

23 “His master said to him, ‘Well done, you good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things. I will make you ruler over many things. Enter the joy of your master.’

24 “Then he who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Master, I knew that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not winnow. 25 So I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground. Here you have what is yours.’

26 “His master answered, ‘You wicked and slothful servant! You knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not winnowed. 27 Then you ought to have given my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received what was my own with interest.

28 “ ‘So take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents. 29 For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from him who has nothing, even what he has will be taken away. 30 And throw the unprofitable servant into outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

When Ben shared the Parable Of the Talents Matthew 25, he gave a story of a wealthy business man named Mr. Jones that had three children. Mr. Jones lived in the United Kingdom.

Mr. Jones was having some health problems and his doctor told him that Mr. Jones needed to go away on vacation and take some time off from managing his businesses. Mr. Jones went away and bought an island that was perfect as it had one side that was tropical and the other side had mountains where people could ski.

Mr. Jones children were named Susan, Jack and Richard. Mr. Jones gave all of his children gifts before he went back to his perfect island.

Susan received the Edinburgh, Scotland home and a check for $500.

Jack was mechanically inclined and always admired his father’s Silver Cloud Rolls Royce. Mr. Jones gave Jack the Rolls Royce and a check for $2 million.

Mr. Jones noticed that his son Richard had struggled all his life and gave him all of his diaries and a check for $1 million.

Mr. Jones left to go back to his perfect island and the children all went to see the gifts their father had given them.

After some time, Mr. Jones returned to visit all three of his children. When his private plane landed at the airport, his chauffeur asked Mr. Jones where he wanted to go. Mr. Jones told his driver to take him to the business of Susan Jones.

Susan had gone to the Edinburgh home when she had inherited the home from her father and found a house full of chemistry experiments. She methodically cataloged all of the experiments and organized the home. Mr. Jones had started researching many very successful chemical formulations. Susan built a huge business and with her husband who was an engineer developed a way to help clean the dirty air that was a serious problem at that time in the United Kingdom.

Jack worked on the Rolls Royce and invested the $2 million. Jack was a good steward of his inheritance. He restored the Rolls Royce, started a used auto parts business and then trained his sons how to be successful in the auto parts business.

Richard went and looked at the boxes of his father’s diaries but never read any of the diaries. Richard survived on the $1 million.

When Mr. Jones came to visit Richard and found him just surviving on an office job that paid a meager wage. Richard had never even deposited the $1 million check in the bank to earn interest.

Mr. Jones asked Richard if he had opened the boxes that contained the diaries. Richard replied that he did not want to damage the diaries and never opened them. Mr. Jones took out the first diary and showed Richard a project he was working on but had not had the time to take action on. In the next page of the diary, there was a working diagram of how to harness solar power.

Mr. Jones told Richard that if he had only opened the books, he would have been one of the richest men on earth.

Mr. Jones told Richard to give him the $1 million check and the boxes of diaries. Mr. Jones took them from Richard and went to his daughter Susan’s house and gave her the diaries and the $1 million. Mr. Jones told his daughter to look at the diary that contained the solar power panel project. Within 2 months, Susan’s company had developed working solar panels.

How many of us have libraries full of books? Do we open them? What do we do with what God gives us?

Why Bad Things Happen Message was given by Marcia Plotner at Cedar Creek SDA church  in September 2021. The full audio file is on my Sound Cloud channel.

If you wrote about what you dreaded the most, what would you write about? Most of us would hope that our loved ones would not get sick. We would also hope that we would not come down with a serious illness.

What if Jesus Christ wrote down HIS thoughts? Would HE write about earthly things or eternal life?

Why Bad Things Happen Message

Turn in your Bibles to Matthew 9:1-2

Matthew 9:1-2
Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralytic

So He got into a boat, crossed over, and came to His own city. 2 Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you.”

Now turn back to Matthew 6:33

Matthew 6:33
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Now let us look at Matthew 9:3

Matthew 9:3
And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, “This Man blasphemes!”

Now turn to Matthew 9:5-6

Matthew 9:5-6
For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Arise and walk’? 6 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—then He said to the paralytic, “Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”

Now turn forward to 1 John 4:10

1 John 4:10
In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sin.

Now look to your right or left at someone that is not a family member. Would you give up your only son for that person?

Turn to 1 John 4:7-8

1 John 4:7-8
Knowing God Through Love
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. 8 He who does not love does not know God, for God is love.

In Isaiah 40:25-26 we read:

Isaiah 40:25-26
“To whom then will you liken Me,
Or to whom shall I be equal?” says the Holy One.
26
Lift up your eyes on high,
And see who has created these things,
Who brings out their host by number;
He calls them all by name,
By the greatness of His might
And the strength of His power;
Not one ismissing.

Our Infinite God created the world with just the right amount of oxygen and natural laws like gravity. We are close enough to the sun to sustain life and just far enough away to not burn up. Why Bad Things Happen Message reveals how much God loves us.

Look at what the Psalmist wrote in Psalm 139:1-6

Psalm 139:1-6
God’s Perfect Knowledge of Man
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

O Lord, You have searched me and known me.
2
You know my sitting down and my rising up;
You understand my thought afar off.
3
You comprehend my path and my lying down,
And are acquainted with all my ways.
4
For there is not a word on my tongue,
But behold, O Lord, You know it altogether.
5
You have hedged me behind and before,
And laid Your hand upon me.
6
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
It is high, I cannot attain it.

Let us read about God’s Rescue Plan found in Romans 5:6

Romans 5:6
Christ in Our Place

For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

When did God make this rescue plan? Turn to Ephesians 1:4

Ephesians 1:4
Just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love.

What motivated God?

Turn to Romans 5:7-8

Romans 5:7-8
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Now turn ahead to Romans 8:32
He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

Will we have to be alone in our work of saving souls for God’s Kingdom? NO !

John 14:16
And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever—

The times we are living in now are very difficult. We have the Father, the Son & the Holy Spirit on our side but you must remember that satan is against us.

Turn to Revelation 12:9

Revelation 12:9
So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

Once again, Who Condemns Us?

Turn to the next verse in Revelation 12:10

Revelation 12:10
Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.

How does Jesus Christ win for us in the battle of good versus evil? Turn to Romans 8:35 to find out.

Romans 8:35
New King James Version

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Is it our internal choices that separates us? We are the only one that can separate us from God’s Love. Who gives us the victory over all of these external problems?

Jesus makes us Victors. Turn to Romans 8:37-39

Romans 8:37-39
New King James Version
Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Turn to Jeremiah 29:11.

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Why do bad things happen?

The last verse we will look at in Marcia Plotner’s Why Bad Things Happen Message is John 13:7

John 13:7
Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will know after this.”

Genesis 2 and 3 Message By Alyssa Morauske shows us that God gave us complete freedom including the choice not to obey. You can listen to her message on my Sound Cloud channel by clicking the link below:

Genesis 2 and 3 Message

Genesis 2:16-17

And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; 17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”

Genesis 2 and 3 Message By Alyssa

God gave complete freedom to Adam to eat of every tree except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Adam was given a choice to obey or not obey. Every single human being born has that choice today.

Satan comes with limited choice. There is power in freedom of choice.

1. Choice
2. Consequence

Parenting style God gave man was there is a consequence to our choices. If we choose to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, the consequence is death.

Let us look at Genesis 2:25:

They were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. At this point before the fall of man in Genesis 3, Adam and Eve had no knowledge of feeling guilty or feeling ashamed. Adam and Eve were exposed and open.

1. Choice
2. Consequence
3. Freedom

Turn in your Bible to Genesis 3:1.

The Temptation and Fall of Man

Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”

Satan challenges God’s Authority and Word. Satan was very deceptive as he twisted God’s Word. Eve was by herself. If Adam had been next to Eve during Satan’s temptation, the outcome may have been different.

Satan introduces restriction and limitation. Instead of God’s parenting style of Choice and Consequence, Satan introduces:

1. Manipulation
2. No Consequence

Turn in your Bible to Psalms 16:11.

You will show me the path of life;

In Your presence is fullness of joy;

At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

Now let us look at Genesis 3:7.

Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.

Alyssa has been married to Mike for several years. When Alyssa was dating Mike, she shared about some past problems in her life with her then boyfriend Mike.

Genesis 3:6-8

So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.

8 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.

Alyssa had a deep spiritual experience while she was working at a summer camp that the Seventh-day Adventist church holds each year. Now turn in your Bible to Jeremiah 23:24:

Can anyone hide himself in secret places,

So I shall not see him?” says the Lord;

“Do I not fill heaven and earth?” says the Lord.

Now turn to Psalm 139:7-8:

Where can I go from Your Spirit?

Or where can I flee from Your presence?

If I ascend into heaven, You are there;

If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.

God comes looking and asks, “Where are you?”

Genesis 3:9-10

9 Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?”

10 So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.”

Human beings have been given a fight or flight response when exposed to fear or fearful events. Our brain will make a choice to fight or leave (flight) when we encounter a fearful situation.

Every single one of us has a sin problem. God gives us a choice. Turn to Genesis 3:21 now.

Genesis 3:21

Also for Adam and his wife the Lord God made tunics of skin and clothed them.

Something had to die to cover Adam and Eve’s newly discovered nakedness. It was the first animal sacrifice for sin in the history of humanity.

Is there something in our lives today that we need to give to God?

Organic Vegan Carrot Cake is one of my wife Patricia’s favorite recipes. It is a healthy and delicious treat any time of the day.

Organic Vegan Carrot Cake

In a medium bowl, wash 3 medium sized organic carrots and use a food processor or a mandolin to shred the carrots. Set the bowl aside for now.

Cake Liquid Ingredients
420 ml almond or other milk
1 tbsp apple vinegar
180 grams sugar ( We use Muscovado Or Panela Unrefined Sugar )
80 ml  olive oil

Cake Dry Ingredients
440 grams flour ( brown, spelt , red )
1 tbsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp clove
1/4 tsp cardamom

150 grams grated carrot
50 grams nuts chopped

Put the liquid ingredients in the dry and mix thoroughly. You should get a cake batter. If the batter is not thick enough, add a small amount of flour until you get a proper cake batter.

Last step is to put the grated carrot and chopped nuts into your cake batter and mix thoroughly. Grease your cake pan with a coating of olive oil so the cake batter does not stick to the pan. Bake your Organic Vegan Carrot Cake in the oven 40 minutes and see if a toothpick comes out clean. If the toothpick is a little wet, bake your cake a few minutes more.

Enjoy your Organic Vegan Carrot Cake. The recipe in the photo above came out perfect. It is moist but stays together.

In South America, we can find Panela Sugar at most markets. In North America, you can order it online. In our local area, we have been able to find Dark Muscovado Sugar. Both of these sugars are unrefined so they are healthier for the body.

If you have a better way to make this recipe, please leave us a comment. Patricia and I are always interested in learning new recipes and ways to enjoy plant based foods in a healthy way.

God Is A Mother Sermon Was Shared on 15 May 2021 At Cedar Creek Seventh Day Adventist Christian Church By Alyssa Morauske.

God Is Like A Mother Sermon

Listen to God Is Like A Mother Sermon on my Sound Cloud Channel Below:

God Is Like A Mother

Mothers are nurturers. Mothers care for children and other people. When you are a child, mothers make you feel safe and comforted.

Alyssa Morauske studied Psychology and Trauma Exposure. A key principle is how a child builds attachment:

1. Baby Has A Need
2. Baby Cries
3. Baby’s Need Is Met By Care Giver
4. Baby Develops Trust

Turn in your Bible to Isaiah 51:12
Isaiah 51:12

I, even I, am He who comforts you.
Who are you that you should be afraid
Of a man who will die,
And of the son of a man who will be made like grass?

In the Bible, there are verses that show the Building Attachment principle.

1. Matthew 6:8 – Baby Has A Need
Matthew 6:8

Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him.
2. Psalm 34:17 – Baby Cries
Psalm 34:17

The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears,
And delivers them out of all their troubles.

3. Philippians 4:19 – Need Met By Care Giver
Philippians 4:19

And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

4. Psalm 9:10 – Trust Develops
Psalm 9:10

And those who know Your name will put their trust in You;
For You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.

Psalm 23 is one of the most comforting chapters of the Bible.
The Lord the Shepherd of His People
A Psalm of David.

Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.

2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.

3 He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
Forever.

In Psalm 23, we see what God’s Comfort Is.
Verse 1 is about Provision.
Verse 2 is about Attentive.
Verse 3 is about Being Present.
Verse 4 Part A is about Being Reliable.
Verse 4 Part B is about Trust.
Verse 5 Part A is about Realism Or Reality.
Verse 5 Part B is about Satisfaction.
Verse 6 is about God’s Continual Pursuit Of Us.

Turn in your Bibles to 2 Corinthians 1:3-4.
2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Comfort in Suffering

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
God designed humans to share comfort and peace with each other.

Turn in your Bibles to Ephesians 6:15.
Ephesians 6:15

And having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace.
Now turn to Isaiah 52:7.

Isaiah 52:7

How beautiful upon the mountains
Are the feet of him who brings good news,
Who proclaims peace,
Who brings glad tidings of good things,
Who proclaims salvation,
Who says to Zion,
“Your God reigns!”
We can see that God blesses the feet of people that go and share God’s Peace with other people.
Who does God want you to comfort this week?
Is there someone in need where you work?
Is there someone at home that needs help?
Is there a neighbor that is having a difficult time?

Turn in your Bible to Colossians 4:3
Colossians 4:3

Meanwhile praying also for us, that God would open to us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in chains.

Dietary Fiber Is Your Friend post shares why eating plant based food is good for your health. Has your Doctor told you to eat more fiber? Do you know why fiber is so good for your health?

Dietary Fiber Is Your Friend

Dietary fiber — found mainly in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes — is probably best known for its ability to prevent or relieve constipation. Foods containing fiber can provide other health benefits as well, such as helping to maintain a healthy weight and lowering your risk of diabetes, heart disease and some types of cancer.

Dietary Fiber, also known as roughage or bulk, includes the parts of plant foods your body can’t digest or absorb. Unlike other food components, such as fats, proteins or carbohydrates — which your body breaks down and absorbs — fiber isn’t digested by your body. Instead, it passes relatively intact through your stomach, small intestine and colon and out of your body.

Fiber is commonly classified as soluble, which dissolves in water, or insoluble, which doesn’t dissolve.

Soluble Fiber

This type of fiber dissolves in water to form a gel-like material. It can help lower blood cholesterol and glucose levels. Soluble fiber is found in oats, peas, beans, apples, citrus fruits, carrots, barley and psyllium.

Insoluble Fiber

This type of fiber promotes the movement of material through your digestive system and increases stool bulk, so it can be of benefit to those who struggle with constipation or irregular stools. Whole-wheat flour, wheat bran, nuts, beans and vegetables, such as cauliflower, green beans and potatoes, are good sources of insoluble fiber.

The amount of soluble and insoluble fiber varies in different plant foods. To receive the greatest health benefit, eat a wide variety of high-fiber foods. Photo below is the Salad that I ate today. I enjoy eating Beets, Broccoli, Cabbage, Celery and Kale with fresh squeezed organic lemon juice on top.

Health Benefits Dietary Fiber Is Your Friend

By giving your body foods that have dietary fiber, you will be helping prolong your life. Dietary Fiber Is Your Friend. Plant based diet is the healthiest diet on the planet.

1. Helps You Achieve a Healthy Weight
2. Helps Maintain Bowel Health
3. Helps Control Blood Sugar Levels
4. Lowers Risk Of Cancers

6. Lowers Risk Of Cardiovascular Disease

Women under 50 years of age should eat 25 grams of fiber each day. Women over age 50 should eat 21 grams of fiber each day.

Men under 50 years of age should eat 38 grams of fiber each day. Men over age 50 should eat 30 grams of fiber each day.

No Big Mac Hamburgers In Heaven post is my desire to inform society about what is best for us to eat in regard to your health. Did you know animal protein causes inflammation in your body?

The reason I posted a photo of this cattle truck in this article is I see and hear these types of trucks often here in Southern Chile. The region has a huge cattle industry and many people make their living raising cattle for the meat industry.

The smell of fresh cow manure is very strong when you get near one of these cattle trucks as the cows are crammed in and the sudden trauma probably causes them to lose their cow chips or cow manure. In January I saw a huge bull cow with his eyes in the back of one of these trucks and the cow was banging his legs on the steel frame of the truck and made quite a noise as the truck rolled on towards the slaughterhouse.

A long time friend of mine told me he has a brother that is an Inspector at a slaughterhouse in the USA. The inspector is a vegetarian and says that if the public were to walk through a slaughterhouse, many would become vegetarians.

No Big Mac Hamburgers In Heaven

You have the God given right to chose what you want to eat. If you are concerned about your health, I invite you to read on as God called me to create this article and publish it.

From probably 1961 until 2000, I ate hamburgers, red meat and pork. In the southern part of the USA where I grew up, it was common to have some kind of meat at every meal.

I remember when the McDonalds fast food hamburger restaurant opened near our home in Madison, Tennessee.  At the time, I thought it was a real treat to go and get a burger with french fries. The convenience of fast food changed the way most Americans ate.

Original Diet In the Bible

You may not be aware but the Bible has many health principles. For the purpose of this article, I will stick to the one focused on what God calls clean foods. The original diet God gave is found in Genesis 1:29.

Genesis 1:29

“God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.”

After sin entered the World in Genesis 3, God sent the Worldwide Flood shortly after He sent Noah to warn people to repent of their sins. God then allowed man to eat meat in Genesis 9:3.

Genesis 9:3

“Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.”

One night in the year 2000, I came home from work exhausted. I was working a physically demanding job at a major airline. Work required that I get into the cargo hold of aircraft at a major airline. Our job was to load and unload airplanes with cargo, mail and luggage.

That night, I realized that I would have to make some changes if I wanted to keep my airline job. I am so grateful that I did. I am still alive today because I slowly eliminated animal foods from my diet. In just six months, I lost 35 kilograms or 75 pounds and have managed to keep the weight off since. Some of my fellow employees are no longer with us as they have gone to sleep.

Plant proteins are much better for your body than animal proteins. Animal proteins cause inflammation in the body. When you eat animal proteins, you are getting secondary protein as most animals are vegetarians and eat plants to live. Highly recommend reading this article that is in Prevention Magazine.

The Bible tells us in Revelation 21:4 that when Jesus Christ returns, there will be no more death. Animals will no longer be slaughtered so there will be No Big Mac Hamburgers In Heaven or Earth.

Revelation 21:4

“God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”

That means animals will no longer be killed for meat. Lions will be tame and not hunt prey.

Farmers that want to get out of the animal herding industry could take their land and start growing in demand fruits and vegetables. The amount of water required to raise a baby calf into a cow is huge.

On average, a single cow produces between 70 to 120 kg of methane gas per year. Just multiply 70 kg times the billions of cows on earth and get an idea of the impact raising cows has on our planet. Earth would be better if there was No Big Mac Hamburgers In Heaven or Earth.

Recipe is from Dr Christianson.

Quinoa is not a grass, but rather a pseudo cereal botanically related to spinach and amaranth, and originated in the Andean region of northwestern South America.

Quinoa is a flowering plant in the amaranth family. It is a herbaceous annual plant grown as a crop primarily for its edible seeds; the seeds are rich in protein, dietary fiber, B vitamins, and dietary minerals in amounts greater than in many grains.

Quinoa has all the essential amino acids the body needs.

My wife Patricia likes to cook the Black, White, and Red Quinoa and add it to our oatmeal in the morning.

For dinner, Patricia will add some White Quinoa to her rice dishes to create a delicious meal.
