Be as wise as snakes, and as gentle as doves.

Be as wise as snakes, and as gentle as doves. (Matthew-10:16). As the child of the Lord, we must learn to be gentle because hypocrisy is an abomination to God. Nowadays everyone’s mind is full of hypocrisy and hypocritical thoughts are hypocritical talks are disgusting to God!

So putting away all wrongdoing, and all tricks and deceits and envies and evil talk, be full of desire for the true milk of the word, as babies at their mothers’ breasts, so that you may go on to salvation; If you have had a taste of the grace of the Lord( 1 Peter 2:1).

Hypocrisy is the mark of a crow, noway days some people is very much like a colored dove, but the mind is not like a dove. When noah sent the raven out of the ark, the crow did not return to the ship. Then, after forty days, through the open window of the ark which he had made,  Noah sent out a raven, which went this way and that till the waters were gone from the earth.(Genesis 8:6,7).

Though the crow was with 1 Year Noah, it did not change its mind. Noway days, many Christians go to church for many years. But there is no real change in them. This what a sad thing!

Pigeon is the symbol of the Holy Spirit:   And Jesus, having been given baptism, straight away went up from the water; and, the heavens opening, he saw the Spirit of God coming down on him as a dove.(Matthew-3:16). The pigeon shall not stand upon them impure things.

And he sent out a dove, to see if the waters had gone from the face of the earth. The pigeon came back into the ship again. We also need to be as gentle as doves.
