A Sandwich of Encouragement
Acts 20:1-12 teaches us aspects of encouragement available for God’s people: (1) encouragement in the midst of opposition; (2) encouragement in the midst of poverty; and, (3) encouragement in the midst of death.
Worship War in Ephesus
Acts19:21-41 shows us three things about the religion of the City of Man: (1) idolatry leads to worship wars, (2) idolatry produces a culture of confusion; and, (3) the only remedy for idolatry is the truth of the gospel.
The Shaking of Ephesus
Acts 19:1-20 teaches us some principles about true, Biblical revival: (1) Spirit, not method; (2) Word, not works; and, (3) Repentance, not moralism.
True revival has this Biblical mark: So the word of the Lord continued to increase and prevail mightily.
