EDITORIAL: Dusty?

It is official; the Bible is the most popular book in America according to a new survey conducted by Harris Poll among 2,513 adults. Surprised? Not really. What is surprising is how a book can be so popular and yet so few put what the book proclaims into practice. We need only look to other social trends to see popularity has little to do with practicality. It is not that the Bible lacks power. No, we simply lack the will to put the power into practice.

wow,you guys don't know how long i've been waiting for someone to call the christians of today pathetic. Because it's true, I've witnessed it for myself, painfully, and sorrowfully. It pains me to see my friends at church just go off and do their own thing, and when I see that, I feel sorrow for them. Not only does it make me mad that they turn a good oportunity down, but when they don't practice the word of God. To me, the word is a sword, and so far, it's an armor peircing shortsword. Most of my friends have daggers, and some don't even have a blade, I mean, what can you accomplish in battle with a hilt? Only one thing, and that is to MAKE a blade, and it will gradually get bigger. I would just like to say, thank-you for your article in the paper, because it is the sign i've been looking for. You guys do wonders through the Lord...Seriously. sincerely, Joseph Blevins.
