The very futile audacity of Philip to Preach the Word to the poor Eunuch and send him off with only Scripture and Holy Spirit to guide him. /sar

Excellent points, Quix!

Lousy points Quix. Philip was commissioned, authenticated, had hands laid upon him, consecrated and sent out by the Apostles, including Peter.

You guys really need to understand what the purpose of the Apostles really was.

Thanks thanks for your kind words.

Just came to me as obvious. I can’t imagine the convoluted mental pretzel gymnastics necessary to construe that the eunuch went off with all the chains of FUTURE ROMAN POLITICAL POWER MONGERS all securely attached . . . stretching all across the Mediteranian . . . back to Ethiopia.

As Christ said . . . loaded on the serfs burdens the power mongers themselves were unwilling to bear.

God’s best to you and yours.
