prevail

Justice suffers when men refuse to stand firm for what is right. If we don__ fight lawlessness, it prevails. If we don__ establish the truth in our nations, truth becomes foreign in the country. God says there is no man when there is nobody who stands for the truth.

I have shown in all the foregoing parts of this work that the Bible and Testament are impositions and forgeries; and I leave the evidence I have produced in proof of it to be refuted, if any one can do it; and I leave the ideas that are suggested in the conclusion of the work to rest on the mind of the reader; certain as I am that when opinions are free, either in matters of govemment or religion, truth will finally and powerfully prevail.
