Acts 19:27

So not only is this trade of ours in danger of falling into disrepute, but also the temple of the great goddess Diana may be despised and her magnificence destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worship. "

1. It is broader than just the silversmiths. As many abandon their pagan worship, the temple will fall into disrepute. It will lose its glamor as a world wonder. It will drop off the list of tourist attractions.

2. And, by the way, Diana will be despised. She will not be worshiped as she has been. She will not have any major impact on worship around the world, especially in the area of Asia.

3. Did you notice? Diana was the LEAST of their concerns.

1. First - their income was being lost

2. Second - the tourists will not keep coming

3. Third - and Diana will not be respected
