From Oliver Cowdery

I was just reading about the restoration of the Aaronic priesthood, and came across Oliver Cowdery's description of John the Baptist's visit. Part of what he wrote really struck me, especially when thinking of current world conditions.
"Man may deceive his fellow man; deception may follow deception, and the children of the wicked one may have power to seduce the foolish and untaught, till naught but fiction feeds the many, and the fruit of falsehood carries in its current the giddy to the grave, but one touch with the finger of his love, yes, one ray of glory from the upper world, or one word from the mouth of the Savior, from the bosom of eternity, strikes it all into insignificance, and blots it forever from the mind!"
