Turning the World Right-Side Up
Acts 17:5-9; John 15:18-21; 2 Corinthians 4:7-12

The accusation against Paul was profound: "These men have turned the world upside down." Actually, they were turning it right-side up. The gospel disrupts comfortable lives because it confronts our rebellion and offers restoration. When you faithfully proclaim Christ, expect both fruit and opposition. Some will be persuaded; others will become jealous and resistant. This isn't failure—it's faithfulness. Jesus promised the world would hate His followers because it hated Him first. Don't seek conflict, but don't avoid truth to maintain peace. The gospel naturally unsettles those content in darkness. Today, examine your witness: Are you faithfully proclaiming Christ even when it's uncomfortable? Remember, persecution often accompanies genuine gospel advance. Stand firm. Lives are being changed.
