God and man are inseparable. We are all members of the divine Body, partakers of the divine nature. We cannot be separated. We are one.

Thought is the greatest power known to man. Out of the past we created the present. And out of the present our thought is creating the future. We become what we habitually think. Think lfe! And you will be filled with new vitality and power. For there is a guiding, producing intelligence that responds to every definite demand made upon it. Think poor thoughts and you become poor. Think great thoughts and you become great. What you are thinking now is conditioning the days ahead.

Decorators are pretty common in modern Python. While not strictly necessary, they can reduce code size while enabling control of function input, invocation, and output. They also enable separation of responsibility and DRY. Many explanations of decorators are brief and leave the listener somewhat confused. This book is an attempt to remedy that. It is based on popular tutorials given at PyCon and in Python user groups.

God only acts and is in existing beings or men. Embracing the fires of experience, God was consumed by the flames, rose from their ashes, and continues to rise as Jesus Christ, or divine imagination. Good and evil are not conditions imposed by some benevolent deity but states the soul must experience in order to surpass them and awaken as God himself.

Functional programming is a somewhat hidden aspect of Python. Though it supports many of the functional constructs, the style is not widely adopted. On the flip side, functional programming appears to be making a resurgence because of the benefits it can provide. Comprehensions are an alternative Pythonic construct for programming in a similar manner. These are features of Python that are commonly used instead of their functional counterparts.

Python is easy to learn. You can learn the basics in a day and be productive with it, but there are more-advanced constructs that you will eventually run across if you spend enough time with it. These constructs, while not necessary per se, allow you to be more succinct, to re-use code, and to think about code in a different way. In this audiobook, you will learn how the constructs work and when to use them, receive real-life examples from the standard library, and more. Write Python like the masters.

There is nothing that appears in perception which cannot be duplicated in fancy, and what the world perceives is all imaginative in character. Here is a graphic example: I am sure everyone knows what it is to detect the fragrance of a rose. Now smell is a chemical sense and depends upon contact for perception. But does one really need a rose to detect its fragrance? Cannot its fragrance be reproduced imaginatively?

In the second letter of Paul to the Corinthians, the very last chapter, the 13th, the author calls upon all of us - for, he is addressing us. Although it was written 2000 years ago, Paul really addresses everyone in the world, and he says: "Examine yourselves, to see whether you are holding to your faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?"

Your first step to creating wealth comes when your "cash flow" starts coming from passive income rather than your paycheck. In other words, your investments and businesses pay you money whether you get out of bed or not. You need to create long-term passive income cash flow backed by a solid asset base. Wealth is all about owning assets. However, an asset must have both capital growth and income.

"All are men in eternity. Rivers, mountains, cities, villages, all are human, and when you enter into their bosoms, you walk in heavens and earths; just as in your own bosom you bear your heaven and earth, and all that you behold, though it appears without, it is within, in Your Imagination of which this World of Mortality is but a Shadow."

Dr. Rod Bailey was sent on a once-in-a-lifetime mission trip to Tegucigalpa, Honduras, as part of the One Child Matters Program. With some reservations, he enters into a land where driving recklessly on crowded streets is normal, roosters crow from the rusty rooftops, and the strong coffee gets no creamer. But, the greater lessons lie in his interaction he has with the proud people, the grateful children, and the mission he came to serve.

God is known by experience or not at all. I have experienced God. I can no more deny it than I can the humblest evidence of my senses, so I feel qualified to tell you how you are going to experience God. There is only God in the world. When you say, "I am," that's God forever and forever.

It’s 1964, and 22-year-old Trisha moves into a West Hampstead bedsitter to escape her controlling suburban parents and her boring fiancé, Keith. She’s determined to make it as a swinging, get-ahead girl-about-town, but finds herself struggling with homesickness, loneliness and the challenges of cooking a decent meal on a single gas ring. Then she rescues a grotty wardrobe from her landlady’s attic, and it yields a surprising treasure – a copy of Cooking in a Bedsitter, which becomes her bible.

This world of ours has changed, if you haven't noticed.

The way we communicate, consume, shop, swap, and date has all changed - we have all changed - because of the Internet. But perhaps it has changed one man most of all. This is the true rags-to-riches, recluse-to-extrovert, fat-to-skinny ShoeMoney Story. Penned with the same irreverence for authority and grammar as his widely read blog, Shoemoney.com, Nothing's Changed but My Change chronicles the journey from a difficult childhood as the fat "dumb" kid to a grown-up place of prominence.

After John R. Patrick's career at IBM, he took a seat on the board of a teaching hospital.
