Acts 19 Paul's effect on Ephesus

Paul’s effect on one city (Ephesus);

In the space of two years he:

§ started people “talking in tongues”

§ caused an uproar in the Jewish synagogue

§ was imitated by seven exorcists who were cast out by demons

§ allowed his converts to publicly denounce the evils of the religion of Ephesus

§ permitted the believers to burn religious texts.

The end result was a citywide riot.

See Acts 19
