The people of Thessalonica called the early church, “the men who turned the world upside down.” What a description of the Church! It was certainly fitting. The early Church seemed to cause “trouble” wherever they went. I’m afraid today we couldn’t be accused of turning the world upside down. Unfortunately, we fail to see the absolutely revolutionary nature of the Gospel. The Gospel has to change everything in our lives or really it hasn’t changed anything. For the “men who turned the world upside down” it did change everything. Let’s long for a Church that does the same.
