Poison - Taming the Tongue
Author: Dag Heward-Mills
Publisher: Lux Vergi Limited
ISBN: 9780796308214
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
The tongue is very vital to our lives as human beings. As a physical organ, it gives us the ability to taste or speak. In the spiritual sense, the tongue controls our destiny, regardless of our status as Christians or unbelievers. In other words, the tongue is a very powerful instrument. According to Dag Heward-Mills we are unaware of the power our tongue possesses. It is dangerous to handle dynamite when you do not know what you are dealing with. Many Christians pass negative comments on their own lives, without knowing the far reaching effects. The tongue is full of poison which no man can tame, according to the Bible. It takes the Holy Spirit to help the believer control his tongue. In this book Dag Heward-Mills warns about the deadly poison like lies, flattery, profane language, tale-bearing, blasphemy, foolish talking, expressing doubt, slander, backbiting and murmuring your tongue can create.

Book Description
A teenage assassin kills with a single kiss until she is ordered to kill the one boy she loves.

It’s a miserable life, but being a visha kanya—a poison maiden—is what she was created to do. Marinda serves the Raja by dispatching his enemies with only her lips as a weapon. Until now, the men she was ordered to kiss have been strangers, enemies of the kingdom. Then she receives orders to kiss Deven, a boy she knows too well to be convinced he needs to die.

Poisonous Tales
Author: Hilary Hamnett
Publisher: Royal Society of Chemistry
ISBN: 1839161434
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
Dangerous, dark and difficult to detect, poisons have been a common character in literature from ancient times to the modern day. Their ability to perform deadly deeds at a distance is a common device for creating dramatic tension and playing on our real life fears. But what is fact and what is pure fiction? From Shakespeare and Dickens to Hugo and Poe, the macabre world of literary poisonings is as large as it is fascinating. Utilising real forensic science Poisonous Tales explores the real science inspiring the toxins and tinctures in our favourite works. Could a poison really mimic death in Romeo and Juliet? What is the cause of the mad Hatter's malady in Alice in Wonderland? And could a stone from the stomach of a goat really have been used as an antidote in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince? Through these and many more 'cases' we discover the captivating truth in the texts and how real-life tragedies can replicate themselves in fiction.

Governing the Tongue
Author: Jane Kamensky
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0195351363
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Governing the Tongue explains why the spoken word assumed such importance in the culture of early New England. In a work that is at once historical, socio-cultural, and linguistic, Jane Kamensky explores the little-known words of unsung individuals, and reconsiders such famous Puritan events as the banishment of Anne Hutchinson and the Salem witch trials, to expose the ever-present fear of what the Puritans called "sins of the tongue." But even while dangerous or deviant speech was restricted, as Kamensky illustrates here, godly speech was continuously praised and promoted. Congregations were told that one should lift one's voice "like a trumpet" to God and "cry out and cease not." By placing speech at the heart of New England's early history, Kamensky develops new ideas about the complex relationship between speech and power in both Puritan New England and, by extension, our world today.
