As you look around your part of our world today is CONFUSION a fair word to use in describing much of what you see in education, business, politics, health care, social media, entertainment and even religion? And when you consider my question through generational lenses, do you find the younger the person or group you are considering, the greater their confusion especially about what is true, or what is right, or what is even common sense?
Come with me again back to the great city of Syrian Antioch, about 2000 years ago, and let’s join up with Paul and Barnabas. You’ll recall they had returned from their first ‘missionary journey’ which had taken them to Cyprus Island and then up into modern day Turkey, and back again to Antioch. Acts 14:28 reports: “They stayed there in Antioch a long time with the disciples.” We presume that means they both fully re-engaged with the amazing spiritual movement happening in Syrian Antioch, as thousands of people, from many different backgrounds and even ethnicities, were hearing the Gospel of Jesus; experiencing spiritual transformation as they trusted Jesus to be their Savior; and earnestly learning from Paul and Barnabas, about this new life in relationship with resurrected Jesus, empowered by the Holy Spirit.
