How did the early church turn the Roman Empire upside down?
The early church turned the Roman Empire upside down not by great evangelistic campaigns or coliseums full of people, but by every believer being taught from the Word and going out as a living testimony to the world around him. This remains the criteria for us today.
Les explains that they did not have great evangelistic campaigns or great coliseums full of people, yet they turned the Roman Empire inside out or upside down. The method was simple: every believer, taught from the Word, could go out and be a living testimony to the world around him. This is the criteria for us today—to be so taught in the Word that you can be a testimony wherever you go, whoever you are. It does not matter how little education you have; you can be a gifted person in God’s program for today.
