The Snake 1


Book Description

People think there is nothing about snake to study to relate to human life. I myself didnt know one could study snake to relate to everyday life. Why should we study such a disabled animal to become able men of high repute? As matter of fact, Evang. Zimboiant has let us know that snake is Satan himself, and so one must be very shrewd as Satan before he or she will be able to detect the devices of Satan in this world. In this book, Evang. Zimboiant uses cobra and emerald boa to digest his two types of isolationnegative isolation and positive isolation. He also uses cobra to elaborate on what he calls elements of focus and barriers to focus. How he uses the way anaconda catches his prey to relate to the shrewdness of the devil is very inspiring and interesting to read even the rest of the text. As a matter of fact, you will understand why Satan came to steal, kill and destroy. Satan tries to hide the actual truth about our God, twists Scriptures to fit his purposes and offers counterfeit promises he cant fulfil. He always seeks an opportune time to tempt us. However, Evang. Zimboiant has perfectly revealed the craftiness of Satan, which will let you understand why Apostle Peter said: Be sober; be vigilant; because your adversary, the devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. (1 Peter 5:8), and to which Apostle Paul also added Do not sin: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place [lest you give a foothold] to the devil. (Ephesians 4:26-27) Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (James 4:7)
