Acts of the Apostles 19:21-20:12 – A Theatre Show

In this sermon we move into the final section of the book of Acts – The final journey to Jerusalem and then afterwards, Rome.  This is simultaneously the intention of Paul and the perfect will of God.  The riot in the great theatre of Ephesus highlights a vivid fact: Paul is not so much the target of attack as is the Gospel that Paul preaches.  This gospel liberates people from false truths and false gods, which in turn endangers the pagan religious system and all those who profit from it.  And finally, as Dr. Luke, the author, joins the team again, the intriguing tale of Eutychus reads like a miraculous entry in a travel journal.
