Acts‬ ‭20‬:‭29‬-‭32‬

“I know that after I leave, some men will come into your group. They will be like wild wolves and will try to destroy the flock. Also, men from your own group will begin to teach things that are wrong. They will lead some of the Lord’s followers away from the truth to follow them. 

So be careful! And always remember what I did during the three years I was with you. I never stopped reminding each one of you how you should live, counseling you day and night and crying over you. 

“Now I am putting you in God’s care. I am depending on the message about his grace to make you strong. That message is able to give you the blessings that God gives to all his holy people.”

Acts 20:24-26

[24] I don’t care about my own life. The most important thing is that I finish my work. I want to finish the work that the Lord Jesus gave me to do—to tell people the Good News about God’s grace. 

[25] “And now listen to me. I know that none of you will ever see me again. All the time I was with you, I told you the Good News about God’s kingdom. 

[26] So today I can tell you one thing that I am sure of: God will not blame me if some of you are not saved.

Acts 20:9-10, 12

[9] There was a young man named Eutychus sitting in the window. Paul continued talking, and Eutychus became very, very sleepy. Finally, he went to sleep and fell out of the window. He fell to the ground from the third floor. When the people went down and lifted him up, he was dead. 

[10] Paul went down to where Eutychus was, knelt down beside him, and put his arms around him. He said to the other believers, “Don’t worry. He is alive now.”

[12] The Lord’s followers took Eutychus home alive, and they were all greatly comforted.

Acts 19:18-20

[18] Many of the believers began to confess, telling about all the evil things they had done. 

[19] Some of them had used magic. These believers brought their magic books and burned them before everyone. These books were worth about 50,000 silver coins. 

[20] This is how the word of the Lord was spreading in a powerful way, causing more and more people to believe.

Acts 19:13-17

[13-14] Some Jews also were traveling around forcing evil spirits out of people. The seven sons of Sceva, one of the leading priests, were doing this. These Jews tried to use the name of the Lord Jesus to make the evil spirits go out of people. They all said, “By the same Jesus that Paul talks about, I order you to come out!” 

[15] But one time an evil spirit said to these Jews, “I know Jesus, and I know about Paul, but who are you?” 

[16] Then the man who had the evil spirit inside him jumped on these Jews. He was much stronger than all of them. He beat them up and tore their clothes off. They all ran away from that house. 

[17] All the people in Ephesus, Jews and Greeks, learned about this. They were all filled with fear and gave great honor to the Lord Jesus.

Acts 19:2-6

[2] He asked them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” These followers said to him, “We have never even heard of a Holy Spirit!” 

[3] Paul asked them, “So what kind of baptism did you have?” They said, “It was the baptism that John taught.” 

[4] Paul said, “John told people to be baptized to show they wanted to change their lives. He told people to believe in the one who would come after him, and that one is Jesus.” 

[5] When these followers heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 

[6] Then Paul laid his hands on them, and the Holy Spirit came on them. They began speaking different languages and prophesying.
