Acts 19:21-20:1 (Great is Artemis!)

The gospel of Jesus opposes Idolatry. There is a two fold challenge to this text - what is the idolatry that you need to reject for the sake of the kingdom? Does your life, your faith, does it rub this world the wrong way?  Its both interesting and important that it isn’t Paul specifically that is causing the stir here in Ephesis - it is the Christians - the movement of the gospel in all of these people.
