The church at Ephesus faced a culture characterized by immorality. We, too, live in a culture tolerant of sexual immorality. It is popular to be open-minded to many types of sin, calling them personal choices or alternative lifestyles. But when the body of believers begins to tolerate sin in the church, it is lowering the church's standards and compromising its witness. Remember that God's approval is infinitely more important than the world's. Use God's Word, not what people around you are willing to accept, to set the standards for what is right or wrong.

INSTRUCTIONS

The key to good Buffalo Wings is how you prepare them as well as the
ingredients and the handling of the wings. The most successful wings served
up here in Buffalo are what they call "Grade A Grinders." Fresh wings that
are very large and meaty.  Usually, you cannot get them in a frozen
package, but can get them from a poultry dealer. Once you find them make
sure they are absolutely fresh. Wash them in cold water, split them at the
joint and remove the tips. Place them on a rack on a pan and refrigerate
overnight to let the blood and water drain out of the wings. THIS IS A REAL
KEY.  Drying the wings under refrigeration will help to make them a much
crispier product, once deep fried. Next, use a deep fryer or a very heavy
deep pot with a thermometer and add the oil. Peanut oil is very good, or a
commercial product such as can be found at a restaurant cash and carry
called Mel Fry. Heat the oil up SLOWLY, to 365F, and depending on the size
of the fryer, deep fry the dry wings 6-8 minutes in small batches, until
thoroughly done and golden brown. Hold the cooked wings in a warm oven if
necessary. A combination of melted margarine and hot sauce in the ratio of
1 part margarine to 3 parts hot sauce will add the right zing. The key here
is to add just enough sauce to coat the wings - the more sauce you add, the
hotter they will be.  For the very brave, 1 part margarine to 3 parts hot
sauce and 1 part Tabasco is referred to as "Suicidal Wings" by the late and
dear Don Bellissimo, who owned the Anchor Bar. Working quickly, place the
deep fried wings in a large bowl and add the sauce mixture, shaking to coat
them. There are many good hot sauces to use; the one they use is either
Durkee Franks Red Hot Sauce or Wingers Original, again found in a
restaurant cash and carry. Celery sticks and chunky blue cheese dressing
(Ken's Buffalo Style Blue Cheese is a popular one) and plenty of napkins.
