Wednesday, August 29 - Acts 20

The resurrection of Eutuchus happened as if it wasn't a big deal! Can you imagine? Why was it so underplayed?
Paul's ministry is truly amazing. I like V.33 - it is one thing to be a missionary, and another to be a self-supporting missionary that sells their belongings and works to support themselves and their mission. I feel like the latter is a rarity.

  1. I think the reason it was underplayed is because the Bible simply states the facts. It doesn't dramatize, overemphasize or underemphasize. God's Word is no respecter of persons and for that reason (amongst others) it is different from any other book.

  2. I agree with your comment. I've never heard of a misssionary/preacher that payed his/her own way.

    I like the message Paul preached. We shouldn't simply take someone at their word just because they appear to be religious. Any relevance for today?
