Many Were Persuaded and Turned Away!

…not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul…saying that they are no gods, that are made with hands: (v26)

1. Paul’s influence – Demetrius’ words indirectly summarized the influence of Paul’s preaching, “this Paul” is certainly not simple! (v26)

2. Paul’s Courage – the rioters rushed into the theatre but Paul did not back off, instead he pushed forward even risking his life. (v30)

Scripture of the Day (NT): Acts 19b (v23-41)
