Download or read book Revealing the Deaf and Dumb Spirit written by Shawn Beaton and published by . This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a spirit that is hunting our national treasure. That national treasure is our children and those attacked by this spirit are typically our most brightest. While doing my research for this book I found out that children with Tourette's Syndrome and those with Dyslexia often have average to above average intelligence. We have also heard of the those with Autism demonstrating a certain kind of genius. This is no mistake for God the Father created these children to be brilliant, but they are under attack by a Deaf and Dumb (Mute) Spirit. These children suffer a great deal of torment and need to be set free from this wicked spirit so they can completely function in society. The Deaf and Dumb (Mute) Spirit attacks these children to frustrate the plan of God the Father for their lives. I believe these children are called into the prophetic and to provide mankind with unique inventions. Unfortunately, the Deaf and Dumb (Mute) Spirit has come against their minds and at times closing their mouths and ears so they cannot learn in an attempt to isolate them and make them ineffective. It is time to fight for these children and set them free from this evil spirit.In this book I not only look at the assault this spirit is making upon our children, but also the Church. Many churches and Christians have no idea about the power available to them. Many false teachers are teaching that the miraculous and the prophetic are no longer available to them as believers. I refute the false doctrine behind this called "Cessationism" and call believers to believe in the miraculous and the prophetic again. Jesus Christ is still working miracles and wants to work them through us. Do you believe this or are you following a Christianity devoid of power? How can we reach a generation bewitched by Harry Potter and the New Age with no power? We do it by becoming believers in Jesus Christ again and doing miracles like He did!In addition, I examine how the Deaf and Dumb (Mute) Spirit is behind a great deal of crime and the mass shooting epidemic we see today. There is a reason why psychopaths don't think like us. Their minds have become warped by this spirit so that they cannot comprehend social norms and behavior.I have also added to this book prayers to defeat this spirit and I unmask this spirit for you so you can recognize its activity and nature. NOTE: I RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS PROPER TO REFER TO A PERSON AS DEAF AND MUTE AND NOT DEAF AND DUMB. I INTEND NO OFFENSE, BUT ONLY USE THE NAME THIS SPIRIT IS MOST RECOGNIZED BY FOR THE PURPOSES OF SPIRITUAL WARFARE.

Download or read book A Man Without Words written by Susan Schaller and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2014-05-15 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a quarter of a century, Ildefonso, a Mexican Indian, lived in total isolation, set apart from the rest of the world. He wasn't a political prisoner or a social recluse, he was simply born deaf and had never been taught even the most basic language. Susan Schaller, then a twenty-four-year-old graduate student, encountered him in a class for the deaf where she had been sent as an interpreter and where he sat isolated, since he knew no sign language. She found him obviously intelligent and sharply observant but unable to communicate, and she felt compelled to bring him to a comprehension of words. The book vividly conveys the challenge, the frustrations, and the exhilaration of opening the mind of a congenitally deaf person to the concept of language. This second edition includes a new chapter and afterword.
