Acts 19:28 Now when they heard this, they were full of wrath and cried out, saying, “Great is Diana of the Ephesians!”
When we come up against the local beliefs and habit of people, we are going to find opposition when we try to speak about God.
God is all powerful and is Creator of everything, including the local peoples belongings; but be careful you do not exclude yourself totally through pride.
Be patient, be kind and treat people as you want God to treat them and God to treat you.
Allow God the time to work in peoples’ hearts; be persistent.
