EXTRA FRUITY SCRIPTURE CAKE
GOOD WHENEVER YOU WISH TO ENJOY

The Bible often likens the Word of God to food.
Job had an "appetite for God's Word more than his necessary food." (Job
23:12.)
The Psalmist regarded the Word as "sweeter than honey from the
honeycomb" (Psalms 19:10).
In the Book of Revelation, John was instructed to take God's Word and
"eat the book" (Rev. 10:9).

This fun recipe is another way of eating God's Word.
The children of the house will have a great time in helping make this
cake.
Have the older children look up the scriptures to find the ingredients.

1 Cup golden raisins (1 Samuel 25:18..."a hundred clusters of raisins")
1 Cup figs, chopped (Isaiah 34:4..."fig from the fig tree")
1 Cup almonds, finely chopped (Numbers 17:23..."bore ripe almonds"
1 Cup dates, chopped (Exodus 15:27..."there were seventy palms")
11/2 Cups flour (Leviticus 2:5..."fine flour, unleavened)
1 pinch salt (Leviticus 2:13..."season with salt"
1 tsp. cinnamon (Exodus 30:23..."of sweet cinnamon)
1 dash ginger and allspice (Song of Solomon 4:10..."all manner of
spices)
1 tsp. baking powder (Amos 4:5..."of that which is leavened"
3 large eggs (Isaiah 10:14..."one gathereth eggs")
1 Cup sugar (Jeremiah 6:20..."and the sweet cane")
1/2 Cup vegetable oil (Numbers 11:8..."cake baked with oil")
1 Tblsp. honey (Judges 14:18..."what is sweeter than honey?)

Preheat oven to 325 degrees (F) or 165 degrees (C).

In a medium bowl combine raisins, dates, figs, and almonds. Set aside.

In a large bowl beat eggs until light. Gradually add sugar and continue
beating for 5 minutes.
Add oil and honey slowly and continue beating another 5 minutes.
Add flour, salt, baking powder, and spices, a little at a time. Stir
until well blended.
Finally, fold in the fruit and nuts. Pour into well-greased 5"x9" loaf
pan or two smaller pans.

Bake about 11/2 hours for large loaf, 45 minutes to 1 hour for smaller
loaves.

Let cool for a few hours then slice with a sharp knife. Keeps well in
refrigerator.
