Beatitudes Posts by tag: Acts 16

Scripture is pretty consistent in telling the truth that the powers that rule this world, the powers of the marketplace, will always resist those who come with healing for hurting people – because there is money to be made in sickness, not in health. But we are slaves of the Most High God, so we are working with a different agenda. One that may get us beaten up a little bit, maybe called names, maybe even slapped with some fines or some jail time, but that’s part of what goes with the territory for followers of Jesus – and that is what the book of Acts tells us.
