I'll try to do more of this story now..... continuing to page 18 Lance Collins continues his message to the Church he is visiting / speaking to from the pulpit:
Let's go to the city of ancient Ephesus. In the 19th chapter of Acts, a strange incident took place. 7 unbelieving Jews tried to cast out demons. They got into hot water. Acts 19:13,14
The story unfolds with this scene
The seven sons of Skeva are present with a demon possessed man. They said: We command you demons in the name of Jesus, whom Paul preaches, to depart!
And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know. But who are you?
Verse 16, And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
.........and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. From Acts 19:17
Many of them which also used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it to fifty thousand pieces of silver. So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed. Acts 19: 19-20

These people who formerly were involved in the occult were converted to Christ! They didn't care about the price of those books! They burned them all! Glory to God!
