Acts 19:21-41 Signs of total Takeover

In this section of text we see what a big threat the Gospel of Jesus had become to pagan idolatry in Ephesus. The idol-makers were losing a lot of money. People were not buying idols anymore because Paul had been preaching that God doesn't live in inanimate matter. This caused a great uproar which led to the intensification of Christian persecution in Ephesus.
