Book Description
The city was a breeding ground for corruption-a labyrinth of shadowy figures, hidden agendas, and illicit activities. It was a place where justice seemed to falter, where the innocent were left to suffer at the hands of the powerful. But amidst the darkness, a flicker of hope emerged. Detective Jacob Hartley, a seasoned undercover agent, had seen firsthand the devastating effects of organized crime. He had witnessed the destruction it wrought upon the lives of innocent people, and he carried the weight of their pain in his heart. Determined to make a difference, he embarked on a mission that would forever alter the course of his life. His journey began with a single purpose: to infiltrate the notorious drug cartel known as The Black Serpents. The cartel's grip on Harbor City was suffocating, and its influence seeped into every corner of society. But Jacob was unyielding in his pursuit of justice. He would go undercover, risking everything to dismantle the organization from within. As he delved deeper into the cartel's operations, Jacob unearthed a web of corruption that reached far beyond the drug trade. He discovered a dangerous alliance between the cartel and a powerful politician, a revelation that shook him to his core. His mission became more complex, his determination solidified. But amidst the treachery and danger, Jacob found an unlikely ally in Mia Turner, an undercover agent from a rival agency. Together, they formed an uneasy partnership, their paths intertwining as they uncovered the truth behind the cartel's operations. Yet, amidst the chaos, a betrayal emerged-one that shattered Jacob's trust and left him questioning everything he believed in. Haunted by his own past and the connections he uncovered, Jacob's determination intensified. He realized that the fight against evil was not confined to the streets-it ran deep within his own history. As he pursued justice, he confronted his own demons, driven by the desire to bring down the entire organizat

A Living Epistle
Author: LaToya C. Dotson
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1449701051
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
A Living Epistle, Read by All Men brings clarity to what it means to be a Christian and sets forth an expectation for those who profess the Christian faith. This book simplifies grace and mercy so that the average reader can understand reconciliation with God through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ. This book also exposes carnality to help Christians understand the reality of thinking like the world. It further interprets mental anguish from a spiritual perspective so that the Body of Christ can overcome by tapping into a greater strength using the mind of Christ. Specifically, in Chapter 2 Carnality Exposed, the writer uses the wisdom of God to explain the usefulness and availability of the mind of Christ and reveals the mechanics Satan uses to keep Christians thinking carnally. Even more specifically, the author explains how carnality destroys a persons understanding, which prevents the truth about Jesus Christ through deception. A Living Epistle, Read by All Men offers its reader fresh oils using the simplicity of the gospel. It further separates the doctrine of Christ from false doctrine by pointing out key doctrinal tricks used by Satan in an attempt to hinder the truth about Jesus. Specifically, the author makes several distinctions about false prophets, false prophecy, and false doctrine so that readers can separate the doctrinally correct from the doctrinally incorrect. The author also humanized certain points of the book, humoring it so that readers can grasp the context of the message. A Living Epistle, Read by All Men comes to: Bring a fresh revelation from the Word of God to spiritually enrich, encourage, and exhort the Body of Christ. Make a distinction between those who follow Christ and those who do not follow Christ so that people can choose Jesus Christ over the world and the anti-Christ. Lift up the bloodstained banner of the gospel of Jesus Christ so that people may experience for themselves the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe. Unbelievers do not know Jesus Christ neither can they discern Him. The gospel of Jesus Christ is foolishness to them, but to us who have salvation, it reveals the power of God. Non-believers may never attend church, go to a prayer conference, or read the Holy Bible. For many, reading the life of an authentic Christian is reading the Bible because Jesus goes forth from that life. Christian Believers are living messages of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Therefore, it is important for Christian Believers to spread the message of Jesus uncompromisingly, with authentic love, characteristically both in speech and in conduct.

Book Description
In all the different situations of experiences I've had with life, you come to realize that control is an illusion, whereas, God has always had it under himself. The book is not about me, but about God, life in general, and spiritual warfare you may encounter in life. It is arrangement of poems in order to depict a soul fallen from God to begin the longing, rough, arduous journey back home through faith in Christ. Sort of like the story told of the lost son by Jesus Christ. You might find something to relate to in this book, then again maybe not. One thing is for sure, Jesus Christ is the only way to eternal life and we all need him.
