Acts 8v4-40
Witnessing - the business of spreading joy all around
In a world filled with people like Simon the sorcerer, full of bitterness, jealousy and filled with people captive to sin (v19), it is refreshing to read of others - individuals - like Philip who carry joy with them everywhere they go!
- Philip, one of the 6 decons, escapes to Samaria due to the persecution of the church in Jerusalem and kept witnessing to the good news of Jesus Christ “So there was great joy in that city” (v8 )
- He obeyed the Holy Sprit’s prompting to go towards the south, on the desert road, meets the Ethiopian Eunuch, explains, the scriptures to him, brings him to faith, and got him baptized “and the Eunuch …. went on his way rejoicing” (v39).
