Download or read book Wise As a Serpent Innocent As a Dove written by Alexys V. Wolf and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves. Be ye therefore wise as serpents and harmless as doves (Matthew 10:16, KJV)."We don't hear much about wisdom in the modern-day churches and, when we do, we hear little about innocence. This day and age is a time of self-serving religion on its best day, not to mention what it is on the worst of days! The King James Version reads "harmless as a dove" whereas the New American Standard reads, "...innocent as doves." Either way, I see a lot of wise people who can preach, teach, prophesy, and more, yet they lack the ability to be innocent or harmless, aka gentle. This book is designed to bring the body of Christ, especially leaders of any vocation, to learn what it is to be innocent and wise at the same time. There's a very good reason as to why God gave such explicit instruction; it's because He understands that, like Lucifer, we can be the wisest of them all yet allow our wisdom to be corrupted by pride.

Download or read book The Plague of Doves written by Louise Erdrich and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, The Plague of Doves—the first part of a loose trilogy that includes the National Book Award-winning The Round House and LaRose—is a gripping novel about a long-unsolved crime in a small North Dakota town and how, years later, the consequences are still being felt by the community and a nearby Native American reservation. Though generations have passed, the town of Pluto continues to be haunted by the murder of a farm family. Evelina Harp—part Ojibwe, part white—is an ambitious young girl whose grandfather, a repository of family and tribal history, harbors knowledge of the violent past. And Judge Antone Bazil Coutts, who bears witness, understands the weight of historical injustice better than anyone. Through the distinct and winning voices of three unforgettable narrators, the collective stories of two interwoven communities ultimately come together to reveal a final wrenching truth. Bestselling author Louise Erdrich delves into the fraught waters of historical injustice and the impact of secrets kept too long.
Download or read book Revelation of Bible Creatures written by Elizabeth Ukeni Abamu and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All creatures in the Holy Scriptures are explained according to their individual characteristics, spiritual significance, and the lessons they teach us. As part of the biblical narrative, they inadvertently carry with them a measure of wisdom, good or bad, for the reader's benefit as we learn about them. Since we must worship God in spirit and in truth, the biblical creatures are therefore a big part of the ways and significance of God. For example, when Christ reminds us to be as wise as serpents and as harmless as doves, it is using the very nature of these creatures to explain how vivid examples such as those would propagate our understanding in the worship of God. Readers will also learn the basics, the depths, and the meaning of life; whom to fear; why and how to love; and how to persevere in our godly walk, if we are to understand God and what He requires of us. This book will help man fight the good fight of faith and finish the race of life in a very strong and fruitful way. Moreover, ears and eyes would be opened, and souls will be won as sermons and good tidings are sown into the hearts of the readers and hearers of this faith. This book can also be a great turning point for a host of people in the realm of God: It includes and maturing Christians, songwriters, fledging preachers, and her slew of scholarly teachers in the things of God.

This book was released on 2014-10-23 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statement Analysis is the scientific process by which deception is detected through the words used. Analytical Interviewing is a legally sound, non-intrusive, non-interpretive method of gaining information from the interviewee based upon the subject's own language. These techniques are invaluable to corporations, businesses, families, law enforcement, teachers, lawyers, therapists, investigators, doctors, sales and anyone in need of protection from deception. Law enforcement separates the innocent from the guilty, businesses can screen out deceptive applicants before they become employees who file fraudulent claims, including unemployment, disability and various fraudulent suits. The author uses examples from murders, missing persons, theft, sexual assault and even child molestation to show how words will reveal the truth from deception, and that trained listening is a skill that, once acquired, will put the trainee at a strong advantage over the deceptive.
