Lord bless Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch "Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Rise and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” This is a desert place. And he rose and went. And there was an Ethiopian, a eunuch, a court official of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure. He had come to Jerusalem to worship and was returning, seated in his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah. And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go over and join this chariot.” So Philip ran to him and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?” And he said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him. Now the passage of the Scripture that he was reading was this: “Like a sheep he was led to the slaughter and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he opens not his mouth. In his humiliation justice was denied him. Who can describe his generation? For his life is taken away from the earth.” And the eunuch said to Philip, “About whom, I ask you, does the prophet say this, about himself or about someone else?” Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this Scripture he told him the good news about Jesus. And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?” And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him. And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way rejoicing. But Philip found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through he preached the gospel to all the towns until he came to Caesarea.".... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand the feeling. But persist please. It has to do with the silly doctrine of inerrancy. Inspiration is NOT often understood in context. God did not ZAP and cause writers to suddenly script.. NO, He took people and prepared them in their lives to write down what He needed to say. Someone else may under the same Spirit be led to add to this script or modify it slightly. God DID prepare the writers to put down what He needed them to say in their own context. That is called INSPIRATION, not some auto-handwriting zombie type of thing, but real folk with points of view and varied education. God is not so small as to do it any other way. He enjoys involving His Creation in His Messaging. His theology is His Alone and He expects us to use our noggins when we discuss it all. You cannot protect scripture - it does not need it as it stands alone on its own merit. Do not worship mere words anyway, worship only God and His Spirit will bring those words alive no matter how many doctrines have twisted it all.

There is secular and worldly content on Worthy because it is a message board on the internet. But there is some very good Christian content as well. Just like you are going to see and hear good and bad at a Church. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
