In this encounter, Philip is led by the Holy Spirit to join an Ethiopian official who is reading a passage from Isaiah. The Ethiopian is puzzled by the text, and Philip uses this as a starting point to explain the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This story underscores the importance of being prepared to share the gospel at any moment, using scripture as a foundation. Philip's willingness to engage with the Ethiopian demonstrates the inclusive nature of the Christian message, reaching beyond cultural and geographical boundaries. This interaction also illustrates the power of personal evangelism and the role of the Holy Spirit in guiding believers to those who are seeking truth. The Ethiopian's openness and Philip's readiness create a divine appointment that leads to a profound spiritual awakening. This passage encourages believers to be attentive to the Spirit's leading and to use scripture as a tool for sharing the good news of Jesus with others.
Then Philip began with that very passage of Scripture and told him the good news about Jesus.
