Acts 19-21

Paul was the center of two more riots in the span of a few months. First in Ephesis and later in Jerusalem. Both riots were started because of Paul's boldness to preach the Godpel to all people. A message that if accepted will not allow people to be unchanges. In Ephesus the Gospel was driving many people away from the worship of the Greek gods. In Jerusalem the Gospel was shining a new light on the emptiness of the Law. Neither population appreciated the change that the Gospel was introducing to their culturem So both cities reacted violently.
It took me about 20 minutes to read this passage.
