Eutychus Warning
Warning to the Wise: Learning from Eutychus’s Mistake 🚧 💀
The downfall of Eutychus is certainly, to modern ears, a strange story, but it would have offered moral guidance to ancient readers. It exhorts them to learn from eutychus’s youthful mistakes and to avoid spiritual slumber at all costs.
In Acts 20:7-12 we encounter a fascinating story about Paul raising a young man from the dead. By this point in the book of Acts, Paul has already concluded his final work in Greece and is in the midst of saying farewell to the Christians in Asia Minor. In particular, he has already spent six and a half days in Troas, and he is down to his final night there. As a result, Paul spends his final hours in the region preaching, worshipping YAHUAH,and breaking bread in an upper room amid a house-church gathering. In fact, we are told that midnight has already arrived and Paul shows no sign of stopping (20:7).At that point, we meet Eutychus, an adolescent worshipper in the Troas congregation whose name literally means lucky or fortunate one. Unfortunately, the young man falls asleep, falls out of the window in which he sits, falls three stories to the ground, and dies. Astoundingly though, Paul goes downstairs, raises Eutychus from the dead, and then resumes his role as the leader of the all-night worship service in the upper room.
There is one big take away we can learn from here:
1) Be careful always
Just because YAHUAH is protecting us and keeping us safe from the enemy, that doesn't mean we should be careless. Eutychus was there listening to Paul's message alright, but he died because he sat down somewhere he shouldn't have sat, at a time he shouldn't have sat there.
We've got to exercise plain common sense.
