“…many who had believed came confessing and telling their deeds. Also, many of those who had practiced magic brought their books together and BURNED THEM IN THE SIGHT OF ALL. And they counted up the value of them, and it totaled fifty thousand pieces of silver. So THE WORD OF THE LORD GREW MIGHTILY AND PREVAILED.” (Acts 19:18-20)
