Acts 8:26 - 8:40
ActsSteve Gregg
In this passage, Philip evangelizes an Ethiopian eunuch who was likely a Gentile and was reading from the book of Isaiah. This encounter sets a precedent for non-Jewish believers to receive the gospel. The importance of the Holy Spirit in understanding scripture and the significance of baptism in committing to the faith are also highlighted. Philip's obedience to the call to travel to the desert road resulted in a providential encounter that advanced God's plan for spreading the gospel.
