Do not incorporate into the society of the wicked, or be too much familiar with them. The wicked are God haters; and “shouldest thou join with them that hate the Lord?” (2 Chronicles 19:2). A Christian is bound, by virtue of his oath of allegiance to God in baptism, not to have intimate converse with such as are God’s sworn enemies…The bad will sooner corrupt the good, than the good will convert the bad. Pharaoh taught Joseph to swear, but Joseph did not teach Pharaoh to pray.

INGREDIENTS

1 1/8	c	Water; lukewarm
3	c	White bread flour
5	tb	Brown sugar
1	ts	Salt
1/2	c	Dried cranberries
1/3	ts	Ground cloves
1 1/2	tb	Orange zest; fresh, grated
3 1/4	ts	Active dry yeast

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Insert ingredients in bread machine according to manufacturer's
instructions. Remove the dough from the machine after the first knead -
approximately 20 to 30 minutes.
2. Place dough on a floured surface. Divide into 8 parts. Form balls,
gently press thumb through center of ball and slowly stretch into bagel
shape.
3. While bagels rise, bring three quarts of water and one tablespoon of
sugar to a rapid boil in a large saucepan. Drop test dough (see hints
below).
4. Using a slotted spoon, drop 2-3 bagels into rapidly boiling water. Boil
on each side for 1/2 minutes. Remove and cool on rack 1 minute, brush with
egg and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds, if desired.
5. Bake at 400 on a baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal, until golden -
approximately 15 minutes.
** Bagel Success Hints
** When forming the bagels, set aside two 1/4" balls of dough. When the
bagels have doubled in size, drop the test dough into boiling water. The
dough should pop to the top right away. When this happens, it is time to
boil the bagels.
** A quick spray of non-stick vegetable coating on the top of the bagel may
be substituted for the egg wash.
** To make bagel sticks, cut bagel before rising and lay out in a straight
line. Roll sticks in a combination of sesame and poppy seeds with a pinch
of garlic powder. Let sticks rise, boil, and bake as described in the above
directions.
** To make bagel chips, slice leftover bagels horizontally into thin
slices. Bruish with butter or margarine on one side. Lay (butter side up)
on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 325 for 12-15 minutes until golden
brown and crisp.
