Paper Power

   Last December Eleanor Barry, a 70-year-old ex-actress, was killed by a pile of paper.  A giant pile of books, newspapers, and the press clippings dating back 25 years collapsed on Miss Barry while she lay in bed.  Police had to use an axe to smash the door of her bedroom because the collapsed pile blocked their entry.  They stated the weight of the papers muffled her cries for help.

   Those searching for truth need to beware of the power of print to kill all desire for God.  The rationalistic theories of men can crush the spirit of inquiry after truth.  Many a man or woman has become the victim of atheism and agnosticism by means of the printed page.

2 Timothy 4:3-4   For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;  4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
