Combine flour, chiles and salt and pepper in a shallow bowl.  Heat the oil
in a deep saucepan until very hot. (The oil is hot enough if a little lour
dropped into it starts to bubble and cook immediately.) Dip a piece of
chicken into the flour mixture, coating all sides, then into the buttermilk
and back into the flour mixture. Carefully put into the hot oil and repeat
with 1-2 more chicken pieces. Do not crowd the pan. Cook chicken pieces
until done and drain on kitchen paper. (To test if cooked, insert a knife
into a piece of chicken, if the juices run clear, it is done.) Repeat with
remaining chicken pieces until all cooked.

A Message from our Provider:

“Plan ahead — It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark.”

I can remember when I was an undergraduate student, how enlightening it was to learn from William Temple that what the Bible means by sin is "self-centeredness." Let me tell you how Temple puts it in his great little book, Christianity in the Social Order. He says, "I am the center of the world I see. And where the horizon is depends on where I stand. Education may make my self-centeredness less disastrous by broadening my horizon of vision. It's like a man climbing a tower who sees further in terms of physical vision while remaining himself the center and the standard of reference. I am the center of the world I see." That's what the Bible means by sin. Luther talks about man curved in on himself. Malcolm Muggeridge talks about the dark little dungeon of my own ego. That is sin, a twist of self-centeredness that has us imprisoned. But God's order is that we love him with all our being, and then that we love our neighbor and put ourselves last. Sin is the reversal of the order.
