We are a people of stories. We use them to entertain, to teach, and to instruct. Sometimes they warn us of the dangers of wandering too far into the woods, or they can be a detailed story to explain how magnificent landscapes came to be. Story has always been the way we pass time, the way we connect to each other, and most importantly, how we promote our values. Parables, especially, have a dual purpose. Not only do they keep us entertained, but they also make a point. Consider Aesop’s fables—tales of talking animals who learn valuable life lessons.

The Twelve Patriarchs: A Handbook on Spiritual Warfare Identifying Attacks, Exposing Spirits, and Defending Your Inheritance Spiritual warfare did not begin in modern times. It began in Genesis.

The Twelve Patriarchs is a battle-ready handbook that exposes the ancient strategies of the enemy and shows how those same tactics are still used today against individuals, ...

In De Profundis, Oscar Wilde, in a lengthy letter to his former lover, reflects on suffering, forgiveness, and redemption. As a confessional text, it ranks with the Confessions of Saint Augustine as an examination of the nature of penitence, its origin and transformative effect. T. W. H. Crosland (1865-1924), a social commentator, was extremely moralistic. Among his targets was Oscar Wilde, whose contrition, as expressed in De Profundis, he believed to be an elaborate and convenient sham.

The political ideas that fully came together under the name “liberal” in the early 19th century—the ideas we often now refer to as “classical liberalism”—emerged out of major debates and developments from the late 1600s to the late 1700s. These were part of the broad European intellectual movement of that era that came to be known as “the Enlightenment".

This is a copy of a manuscript that was written in 1991 but never published. W. T. made copies and distributed them to several local libraries. Half of the original files were not available, so this book is an OCR of one of the library's copies I was able to locate. When available, the original files and images were used instead of the photocopied images. If the original photographs were not available, I scanned the images from the library's photocopied images which were extremely low quality and then performed some image enhancements to improve them a small amount. My initial instinct was ...
