00:13:41.299 --> 00:13:43.120
Philip<00:13:41.600><c> had</c><00:13:41.919><c> disappeared</c><00:13:42.340><c> out</c><00:13:42.539><c> of</c><00:13:42.620><c> his</c><00:13:42.840><c> life,</c>

00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:45.899
and<00:13:43.519><c> he</c><00:13:43.840><c> arrived</c><00:13:44.259><c> dramatically</c><00:13:44.820><c> in</c><00:13:45.000><c> the</c><00:13:45.139><c> eunuch's</c><00:13:45.580><c> life</c>

00:13:49.500 --> 00:13:53.639
And<00:13:49.740><c> I</c><00:13:49.980><c> think</c><00:13:50.159><c> that</c><00:13:50.340><c> that</c><00:13:50.480><c> was</c><00:13:50.679><c> one</c><00:13:50.860><c> of</c><00:13:50.980><c> the</c><00:13:51.120><c> things</c><00:13:51.320><c> that</c><00:13:51.639><c> probably</c><00:13:51.919><c> convinced</c><00:13:52.620><c> the</c><00:13:53.000><c> eunuch</c>

00:14:00.620 --> 00:14:01.100
his<00:14:00.799><c> life.</c>

00:14:01.379 --> 00:14:04.740
He<00:14:01.460><c> was</c><00:14:01.659><c> an</c><00:14:01.940><c> angel</c><00:14:02.220><c> of</c><00:14:02.500><c> good</c><00:14:02.620><c> who</c><00:14:02.940><c> arrived</c><00:14:03.519><c> and</c><00:14:04.039><c> disappeared</c>

00:14:04.740 --> 00:14:07.200
just<00:14:05.399><c> as</c><00:14:05.659><c> quickly</c><00:14:05.960><c> as</c><00:14:06.240><c> he</c><00:14:06.480><c> came.</c>

00:14:08.259 --> 00:14:11.059
But<00:14:08.539><c> I</c><00:14:08.700><c> think</c><00:14:08.860><c> there</c><00:14:09.019><c> was</c><00:14:09.179><c> a</c><00:14:09.320><c> lesson</c><00:14:09.600><c> for</c><00:14:10.000><c> Philip</c><00:14:10.279><c> as</c><00:14:10.580><c> well,</c>

00:14:11.379 --> 00:14:14.059
and<00:14:11.519><c> that</c><00:14:11.700><c> the</c><00:14:11.919><c> spirit</c><00:14:12.179><c> removed</c><00:14:12.779><c> him</c><00:14:12.960><c> on</c><00:14:13.159><c> this</c><00:14:13.320><c> occasion</c><00:14:13.779><c> to</c>

teach<00:14:14.360><c> Philip</c>

00:14:14.820 --> 00:14:17.639
that<00:14:15.720><c> he</c><00:14:15.840><c> had</c><00:14:16.019><c> another</c><00:14:16.259><c> work</c><00:14:16.559><c> to</c><00:14:16.779><c> do.</c>

00:14:17.700 --> 00:14:22.519
In<00:14:18.019><c> fact,</c><00:14:18.320><c> he</c><00:14:18.419><c> was</c><00:14:18.679><c> about</c><00:14:18.980><c> to</c><00:14:19.220><c> go</c><00:14:19.559><c> on</c><00:14:20.179><c> another</c><00:14:20.940><c> missionary</c><00:14:21.820><c> journey.</c>

00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:26.600
It<00:14:23.059><c> was</c><00:14:23.320><c> going</c><00:14:23.440><c> to</c><00:14:23.580><c> be</c><00:14:23.799><c> the</c><00:14:24.080><c> third</c><00:14:24.779><c> missionary</c><00:14:25.360><c> journey</c><00:14:25.980><c> of</c>

00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:27.940
Philip<00:14:26.879><c> the</c><00:14:27.139><c> evangelist</c>

00:14:27.940 --> 00:14:30.019
as<00:14:28.200><c> this</c><00:14:28.519><c> story</c><00:14:28.879><c> unfolds.</c>

00:14:30.059 --> 00:14:33.110
He<00:14:30.159><c> was</c><00:14:30.480><c> found,</c><00:14:30.740><c> as</c><00:14:30.919><c> the</c><00:14:31.120><c> record</c><00:14:31.340><c> says,</c><00:14:32.039><c> at</c><00:14:32.320><c> Azotus.</c>

00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:35.700
So<00:14:33.600><c> where</c><00:14:33.980><c> exactly</c><00:14:34.460><c> was</c><00:14:34.899><c> he?</c>

00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:38.120
Well,<00:14:36.440><c> the</c><00:14:36.539><c> record</c><00:14:36.919><c> says,</c><00:14:37.360><c> in</c><00:14:37.519><c> verse</c><00:14:37.779><c> 40,</c>

00:14:38.139 --> 00:14:42.340
he<00:14:38.220><c> was</c><00:14:38.559><c> found</c><00:14:38.799><c> at</c><00:14:38.960><c> Azotus</c><00:14:39.419><c> and</c><00:14:39.940><c> passing</c><00:14:40.440><c> through</c><00:14:40.919><c> he</c><00:14:41.379><c> preached</c><00:14:41.799><c> in</c><00:14:42.100><c> all</c>

00:14:42.340 --> 00:14:43.399
the<00:14:42.539><c> cities.</c>

00:14:43.940 --> 00:14:46.679
Now,<00:14:44.179><c> in</c><00:14:44.399><c> the</c><00:14:44.659><c> English,</c><00:14:45.039><c> the</c><00:14:45.080><c> word</c><00:14:45.399><c> passing</c><00:14:45.980><c> through</c>

00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:50.360
sort<00:14:47.220><c> of</c><00:14:48.100><c> conveys</c><00:14:48.519><c> the</c><00:14:48.740><c> idea</c><00:14:48.960><c> that</c><00:14:49.059><c> he</c><00:14:49.159><c> was</c><00:14:49.340><c> simply</c><00:14:49.820><c> on</c><00:14:50.240><c> route</c>

00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:51.379
to<00:14:50.620><c> somewhere</c><00:14:50.860><c> else,</c>

00:14:51.379 --> 00:14:55.340
traveling<00:14:52.399><c> through</c><00:14:52.820><c> to</c><00:14:52.960><c> get</c><00:14:53.200><c> to</c><00:14:53.419><c> a</c><00:14:53.440><c> particular</c><00:14:54.000><c> destination.</c>

00:14:55.659 --> 00:14:58.139
That's<00:14:56.059><c> not</c><00:14:56.360><c> really</c><00:14:56.720><c> the</c><00:14:56.840><c> meaning</c><00:14:57.019><c> of</c><00:14:57.279><c> the</c><00:14:57.460><c> Greek</c><00:14:57.720><c> word.</c>

00:14:58.580 --> 00:15:01.360
The<00:14:58.779><c> Greek</c><00:14:59.100><c> word</c><00:14:59.460><c> passing</c><00:14:59.980><c> through</c><00:15:00.600><c> means</c>

00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:08.080
to<00:15:02.259><c> go</c><00:15:02.559><c> about,</c><00:15:03.220><c> to</c><00:15:03.340><c> go</c><00:15:03.759><c> throughout,</c><00:15:04.960><c> to</c><00:15:05.100><c> go</c><00:15:05.360><c> abroad,</c><00:15:06.620><c> to</c><00:15:06.679><c> go</c><00:15:06.960><c> everywhere.</c>

00:15:08.580 --> 00:15:12.220
And<00:15:08.740><c> so</c><00:15:09.000><c> really</c><00:15:09.320><c> what</c><00:15:09.519><c> happened</c><00:15:09.860><c> is</c><00:15:10.120><c> that</c><00:15:10.460><c> Philip</c><00:15:10.779><c> traversed</c>

00:15:12.220 --> 00:15:13.980
the<00:15:12.539><c> whole</c><00:15:12.899><c> of</c><00:15:13.220><c> this</c><00:15:13.500><c> area</c>

00:15:13.980 --> 00:15:17.159
in<00:15:14.519><c> a</c><00:15:14.820><c> systematic</c><00:15:15.700><c> preaching</c><00:15:16.419><c> campaign.</c>

00:15:17.159 --> 00:15:22.139
His<00:15:18.019><c> passing</c><00:15:18.639><c> through</c><00:15:19.019><c> was</c><00:15:19.259><c> not</c><00:15:19.740><c> haphazard,</c><00:15:20.799><c> but</c><00:15:20.960><c> deliberate.</c>

00:15:22.500 --> 00:15:25.840
This<00:15:22.620><c> was</c><00:15:22.799><c> the</c><00:15:23.080><c> evangelist,</c><00:15:24.679><c> and</c><00:15:24.879><c> he</c><00:15:24.960><c> was</c><00:15:25.120><c> on</c><00:15:25.259><c> another</c><00:15:25.539><c> tour.</c>

00:15:26.220 --> 00:15:28.059
So<00:15:26.379><c> let's</c><00:15:26.620><c> come</c><00:15:26.820><c> back</c><00:15:26.980><c> to</c><00:15:27.120><c> our</c><00:15:27.340><c> maps</c><00:15:27.580><c> at</c><00:15:27.779><c> the</c><00:15:27.919><c> back</c>

00:15:28.059 --> 00:15:30.240
and<00:15:28.179><c> see</c><00:15:28.340><c> if</c><00:15:28.440><c> we</c><00:15:28.580><c> can</c><00:15:28.820><c> see</c><00:15:29.039><c> where</c><00:15:29.240><c> it</c><00:15:29.480><c> was</c><00:15:29.679><c> that</c><00:15:29.820><c> he</c><00:15:29.899><c> was</c><00:15:30.100><c> going</c>

00:15:32.700 --> 00:15:34.860
Because<00:15:32.940><c> I</c><00:15:33.100><c> think</c><00:15:33.240><c> we</c><00:15:33.399><c> can</c><00:15:33.600><c> pick</c><00:15:33.799><c> up</c><00:15:33.960><c> most</c><00:15:34.240><c> of</c><00:15:34.399><c> the</c><00:15:34.559><c> places</c>

00:15:34.860 --> 00:15:38.659
he<00:15:35.340><c> must</c><00:15:35.620><c> have</c><00:15:35.820><c> traveled</c><00:15:36.139><c> on</c><00:15:36.360><c> the</c><00:15:36.639><c> occasion</c><00:15:36.980><c> of</c><00:15:37.399><c> this</c><00:15:37.620><c> adventure.</c>

00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:41.080
Now,<00:15:38.960><c> you'll</c><00:15:39.299><c> remember</c><00:15:39.559><c> that</c><00:15:39.679><c> in</c><00:15:39.840><c> the</c><00:15:39.960><c> Oxford</c><00:15:40.299><c> Bible</c><00:15:40.679><c> it's</c>

00:15:59.519 --> 00:16:04.179
oh,<00:16:00.000><c> this</c><00:16:00.179><c> is</c><00:16:00.419><c> tricky</c><00:16:00.620><c> really,</c><00:16:01.100><c> I'd</c><00:16:01.320><c> have</c><00:16:01.419><c> to</c><00:16:01.639><c> say</c><00:16:01.940><c> VW</c><00:16:02.820><c> 5</c><00:16:03.220><c>.5.</c>

00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:06.279
Does<00:16:04.539><c> that</c><00:16:04.799><c> make</c><00:16:05.039><c> sense</c><00:16:05.320><c> to</c><00:16:05.539><c> everyone?</c>

00:16:06.879 --> 00:16:09.620
In<00:16:07.019><c> other</c><00:16:07.179><c> words,</c><00:16:07.379><c> it's</c><00:16:07.539><c> not</c><00:16:07.820><c> quite</c><00:16:08.320><c> V</c><00:16:08.559><c> and</c><00:16:08.639><c> it's</c><00:16:08.840><c> not</c><00:16:09.019><c> quite</c><00:16:09.299><c> W</c>

00:16:09.620 --> 00:16:12.259

00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:15.620

00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:16.299
Can<00:16:15.860><c> you</c><00:16:15.860><c> find</c><00:16:16.039><c> it?</c>

00:16:16.799 --> 00:16:18.879
Now,<00:16:17.000><c> by</c><00:16:17.179><c> the</c><00:16:17.299><c> way,</c><00:16:17.500><c> just</c><00:16:17.659><c> a</c><00:16:17.740><c> question</c><00:16:18.000><c> for</c><00:16:18.159><c> those</c><00:16:18.340><c> of</c><00:16:18.440><c> you</c><00:16:18.559><c> that</c><00:16:18.580><c> have</c><00:16:18.679><c> got</c>

00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:19.799
Oxford<00:16:19.200><c> maps.</c>

00:16:20.200 --> 00:16:27.460
Do<00:16:20.399><c> you</c><00:16:20.399><c> think</c><00:16:20.620><c> that</c><00:16:20.980><c> Gaza</c><00:16:21.399><c> on</c><00:16:21.740><c> your</c><00:16:22.179><c> map</c><00:16:22.419><c> is</c><00:16:22.919><c> Old</c><00:16:23.639><c> Gaza</c><00:16:24.240><c> or</c><00:16:25.639><c> New</c><00:16:26.259><c> Gaza?</c>

00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:28.820
What<00:16:27.679><c> thinker</c><00:16:28.120><c> spell?</c>

00:16:30.659 --> 00:16:31.779
Yes,<00:16:30.860><c> I</c><00:16:30.960><c> think</c><00:16:31.039><c> it's</c><00:16:31.220><c> Old</c><00:16:31.440><c> Gaza.</c>

00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:33.720
Why<00:16:32.159><c> is</c><00:16:32.360><c> it</c><00:16:32.519><c> Old</c><00:16:32.779><c> Gaza?</c>

00:16:34.360 --> 00:16:36.299
Because<00:16:34.799><c> it's</c><00:16:35.000><c> not</c><00:16:35.120><c> on</c><00:16:35.279><c> the</c><00:16:35.419><c> coast.</c>

00:16:36.500 --> 00:16:38.159
The<00:16:36.679><c> New</c><00:16:37.000><c> Gaza</c><00:16:37.360><c> is</c><00:16:37.580><c> on</c><00:16:37.799><c> the</c><00:16:37.919><c> coast.</c>

00:16:38.200 --> 00:16:41.019
The<00:16:38.360><c> Old</c><00:16:38.580><c> Gaza,</c><00:16:38.879><c> remember,</c><00:16:39.220><c> was</c><00:16:39.340><c> two</c><00:16:39.539><c> and</c><00:16:39.720><c> a</c><00:16:39.779><c> half</c><00:16:39.940><c> miles</c><00:16:40.460><c> inland.</c>

00:16:41.019 --> 00:16:44.879
So<00:16:41.299><c> yes,</c><00:16:41.879><c> I</c><00:16:41.960><c> think</c><00:16:42.159><c> the</c><00:16:42.399><c> Gaza</c><00:16:42.600><c> on</c><00:16:42.820><c> the</c><00:16:42.980><c> map</c><00:16:43.080><c> is</c><00:16:43.259><c> the</c><00:16:43.460><c> Old</c><00:16:43.899><c> Gaza.</c>

00:16:45.059 --> 00:16:47.679
And<00:16:45.580><c> you'll</c><00:16:46.039><c> notice</c><00:16:46.179><c> that</c><00:16:46.299><c> he</c><00:16:46.399><c> was</c><00:16:46.659><c> plucked</c><00:16:46.919><c> away</c><00:16:47.100><c> and</c><00:16:47.279><c> he</c><00:16:47.399><c> was</c>

00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:48.740
found<00:16:48.000><c> at</c><00:16:48.360><c> Azotus.</c>

00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:50.480
Now,<00:16:48.960><c> can</c><00:16:49.080><c> you</c><00:16:49.200><c> all</c><00:16:49.419><c> find</c><00:16:49.679><c> Azotus?</c>

00:16:50.779 --> 00:16:55.100
So<00:16:50.899><c> Azotus</c><00:16:51.399><c> is</c><00:16:51.740><c> further</c><00:16:51.980><c> up</c><00:16:52.279><c> the</c><00:16:52.580><c> coast</c><00:16:52.879><c> beyond</c><00:16:53.480><c> Ascalon.</c>

00:16:55.460 --> 00:16:57.799
Can<00:16:55.639><c> you</c><00:16:55.720><c> all</c><00:16:56.000><c> see</c><00:16:56.279><c> Azotus</c><00:16:56.919><c> on</c><00:16:57.179><c> the</c><00:16:57.419><c> coast?</c>

00:16:58.059 --> 00:17:00.000
So<00:16:58.240><c> that's</c><00:16:58.500><c> where</c><00:16:58.679><c> Philip</c><00:16:58.980><c> turns</c><00:16:59.379><c> up.</c>

00:17:00.379 --> 00:17:03.419
Now,<00:17:00.580><c> he's</c><00:17:00.860><c> going</c><00:17:01.000><c> to</c><00:17:01.299><c> preach,</c><00:17:01.840><c> says</c><00:17:01.919><c> the</c><00:17:02.200><c> record,</c><00:17:03.019><c> until</c><00:17:03.279><c> he</c>

00:17:03.419 --> 00:17:05.200
gets<00:17:03.779><c> to</c><00:17:04.140><c> Caesarea.</c>

00:17:05.420 --> 00:17:09.039
So<00:17:05.779><c> tell</c><00:17:06.039><c> me</c><00:17:06.259><c> the</c><00:17:06.460><c> cities</c><00:17:06.740><c> that</c><00:17:06.900><c> he's</c><00:17:07.140><c> most</c><00:17:07.640><c> likely</c><00:17:08.099><c> to</c><00:17:08.440><c> preach</c><00:17:08.759><c> in</c>

00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:12.759
on<00:17:09.460><c> the</c><00:17:09.819><c> occasion</c><00:17:10.339><c> of</c><00:17:10.700><c> this</c><00:17:11.220><c> missionary</c><00:17:11.619><c> journey.</c>

00:17:12.920 --> 00:17:16.920
From<00:17:13.119><c> Azotus,</c><00:17:13.759><c> where</c><00:17:13.819><c> the</c><00:17:14.059><c> spirit</c><00:17:14.299><c> plucks</c><00:17:14.720><c> him</c><00:17:15.079><c> to,</c><00:17:16.259><c> where</c><00:17:16.559><c> will</c><00:17:16.720><c> he</c>

00:17:16.920 --> 00:17:18.859
most<00:17:17.279><c> likely</c><00:17:17.700><c> preach?</c>

00:17:20.240 --> 00:17:21.259
Any<00:17:20.400><c> thoughts?</c>

00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:24.119
Way,<00:17:22.960><c> way,</c><00:17:23.099><c> way</c><00:17:23.359><c> too</c><00:17:23.680><c> far</c><00:17:23.880><c> ahead.</c>

00:17:24.460 --> 00:17:27.480
You've<00:17:24.700><c> already</c><00:17:24.980><c> missed</c><00:17:25.220><c> out</c><00:17:25.480><c> several</c><00:17:26.039><c> villages</c><00:17:26.420><c> who</c><00:17:26.940><c> haven't</c><00:17:27.200><c> even</c>

00:17:27.480 --> 00:17:28.500
been<00:17:27.700><c> given</c><00:17:27.960><c> the</c><00:17:28.240><c> chance</c>

00:17:28.500 --> 00:17:29.440
for<00:17:28.799><c> saving</c><00:17:29.160><c> truth.</c>

00:17:29.700 --> 00:17:30.980
What<00:17:29.900><c> a</c><00:17:30.119><c> shame.</c>

00:17:31.539 --> 00:17:33.380
Come<00:17:31.759><c> back</c><00:17:31.960><c> a</c><00:17:32.059><c> bit,</c><00:17:32.299><c> yes?</c>

00:17:34.819 --> 00:17:36.799
A<00:17:35.019><c> little</c><00:17:35.200><c> bit</c><00:17:35.420><c> too</c><00:17:35.599><c> further</c><00:17:35.839><c> ahead.</c>

00:17:38.420 --> 00:17:40.119
Nearer<00:17:38.940><c> the</c><00:17:38.940><c> coast.</c>

00:17:41.059 --> 00:17:42.079
Yes,<00:17:41.359><c> Jamnia.</c>

00:17:42.420 --> 00:17:46.039
Jamnia<00:17:42.900><c> was</c><00:17:43.119><c> directly</c><00:17:43.579><c> on</c><00:17:43.819><c> the</c><00:17:43.960><c> route</c><00:17:44.160><c> north</c><00:17:44.500><c> of</c><00:17:44.920><c> Azotus,</c><00:17:46.039><c> yes.</c>

00:17:46.200 --> 00:17:49.799
And<00:17:46.519><c> then</c><00:17:46.819><c> coming</c><00:17:47.079><c> inland,</c><00:17:47.700><c> it</c><00:17:47.759><c> may</c><00:17:48.039><c> have</c><00:17:48.339><c> been</c><00:17:48.599><c> Gaza,</c><00:17:49.099><c> but</c><00:17:49.519><c> it</c>

00:17:49.799 --> 00:17:51.279
certainly<00:17:50.019><c> also</c><00:17:50.359><c> would</c><00:17:50.500><c> have</c><00:17:50.680><c> been</c><00:17:50.900><c> Lida,</c>

00:17:51.500 --> 00:17:55.640
because<00:17:51.880><c> Lida,</c><00:17:52.380><c> a</c><00:17:52.440><c> little</c><00:17:52.660><c> further</c><00:17:53.019><c> inland,</c><00:17:53.599><c> was</c><00:17:53.700><c> on</c><00:17:53.920><c> the</c><00:17:54.099><c> main</c><00:17:54.299><c> route</c><00:17:54.519><c> that</c><00:17:54.839><c> travels</c><00:17:55.160><c> up</c>

00:17:56.980 --> 00:17:59.180
And<00:17:57.279><c> now</c><00:17:57.640><c> you</c><00:17:57.759><c> can</c><00:17:58.019><c> come</c><00:17:58.180><c> back</c><00:17:58.339><c> out</c><00:17:58.539><c> to</c><00:17:58.660><c> the</c><00:17:58.799><c> coast.</c>

00:17:59.579 --> 00:18:02.220
And<00:18:00.039><c> yes,</c><00:18:00.220><c> he</c><00:18:00.319><c> would</c><00:18:00.500><c> have</c><00:18:00.619><c> come</c><00:18:00.819><c> to</c><00:18:01.039><c> Joppa</c><00:18:01.319><c> at</c><00:18:01.700><c> a</c><00:18:01.880><c> particular</c>

Once<00:33:55.500><c> the</c><00:33:55.799><c> truth</c><00:33:55.940><c> was</c><00:33:56.259><c> extended</c><00:33:56.680><c> to</c><00:33:57.000><c> them,</c>

00:33:58.000 --> 00:34:00.680
there<00:33:58.099><c> would</c><00:33:58.279><c> be</c><00:33:58.599><c> no</c><00:33:58.880><c> turning</c><00:33:59.160><c> back</c><00:33:59.460><c> until</c><00:33:59.680><c> the</c><00:33:59.940><c> truth</c><00:34:00.079><c> had</c><00:34:00.299><c> gone</c><00:34:00.440><c> to</c>

00:34:00.680 --> 00:34:02.660
every<00:34:01.000><c> quarter</c><00:34:01.299><c> of</c><00:34:01.579><c> the</c><00:34:01.759><c> world.</c>

00:34:04.019 --> 00:34:07.960
So<00:34:04.400><c> Philip</c><00:34:04.960><c> converts</c><00:34:05.740><c> a</c><00:34:06.339><c> man</c><00:34:06.559><c> of</c><00:34:06.940><c> him,</c>

00:34:08.119 --> 00:34:12.940
which<00:34:08.340><c> is</c><00:34:08.960><c> the</c><00:34:09.260><c> lesser</c><00:34:09.579><c> of</c><00:34:09.920><c> the</c><00:34:10.179><c> two</c><00:34:10.559><c> branches</c><00:34:11.179><c> of</c><00:34:11.539><c> the</c><00:34:11.719><c> Gentiles.</c>

00:34:13.320 --> 00:34:18.079
But<00:34:13.880><c> for</c><00:34:14.139><c> this</c><00:34:14.400><c> conversion</c><00:34:15.079><c> of</c><00:34:15.480><c> the</c><00:34:15.619><c> first</c><00:34:16.199><c> Japhethite,</c>

00:34:18.500 --> 00:34:21.420
well,<00:34:18.860><c> there</c><00:34:18.880><c> was</c><00:34:19.159><c> a</c><00:34:19.239><c> lot</c><00:34:19.440><c> of</c><00:34:19.659><c> strong</c><00:34:19.860><c> Jewish</c><00:34:20.199><c> prejudice</c><00:34:20.679><c> involved</c><00:34:21.199><c> in</c>

00:34:21.420 --> 00:34:22.980
the<00:34:21.579><c> Gentiles</c><00:34:22.059><c> coming</c><00:34:22.340><c> into</c><00:34:22.559><c> the</c><00:34:22.760><c> truth,</c>

00:34:23.219 --> 00:34:26.380
and<00:34:23.380><c> even</c><00:34:23.659><c> Peter</c><00:34:23.920><c> himself</c><00:34:24.559><c> was</c><00:34:24.860><c> going</c><00:34:25.000><c> to</c><00:34:25.159><c> struggle</c><00:34:25.420><c> to</c><00:34:25.619><c> convince</c><00:34:25.960><c> someone</c><00:34:26.219><c> in</c>

00:34:26.380 --> 00:34:27.400
Jerusalem<00:34:26.860><c> and</c><00:34:27.099><c> Ecclesia</c>

00:34:27.400 --> 00:34:30.139
that<00:34:27.760><c> the</c><00:34:28.039><c> Gentiles</c><00:34:28.500><c> ought</c><00:34:28.840><c> to</c><00:34:29.000><c> be</c><00:34:29.179><c> involved.</c>

00:34:30.500 --> 00:34:35.059
So<00:34:30.659><c> I</c><00:34:30.659><c> think</c><00:34:30.860><c> if</c><00:34:31.119><c> Philip</c><00:34:31.400><c> had</c><00:34:31.619><c> actually</c><00:34:31.980><c> performed</c><00:34:32.480><c> the</c><00:34:32.880><c> baptism</c><00:34:33.340><c> of</c><00:34:33.739><c> Cornelius,</c>

00:34:35.099 --> 00:34:38.420
that<00:34:35.239><c> the</c><00:34:35.440><c> opposition</c><00:34:35.780><c> would</c><00:34:35.980><c> have</c><00:34:36.139><c> been</c><00:34:36.340><c> even</c><00:34:36.800><c> more</c><00:34:37.219><c> strenuous</c><00:34:37.900><c> and</c>

00:34:38.420 --> 00:34:39.559
even<00:34:38.820><c> more</c><00:34:39.179><c> difficult.</c>

00:34:39.559 --> 00:34:44.019
And<00:34:39.719><c> so</c><00:34:39.880><c> an</c><00:34:40.199><c> apostle</c><00:34:40.699><c> came</c><00:34:41.280><c> and</c><00:34:41.980><c> turned</c><00:34:42.519><c> the</c><00:34:42.980><c> key</c><00:34:43.340><c> on</c><00:34:43.820><c> the</c>

00:34:44.019 --> 00:34:45.119
Gentile<00:34:44.719><c> door,</c>

00:34:45.360 --> 00:34:47.579
despite<00:34:45.840><c> the</c><00:34:46.059><c> fact</c><00:34:46.219><c> that</c><00:34:46.420><c> I</c><00:34:46.460><c> think</c><00:34:46.699><c> Philip</c><00:34:46.940><c> was</c><00:34:47.139><c> probably</c><00:34:47.440><c> in</c>

00:34:47.579 --> 00:34:49.559
the<00:34:47.719><c> city</c><00:34:47.880><c> at</c><00:34:48.059><c> that</c><00:34:48.179><c> very</c><00:34:48.460><c> time.</c>

00:34:50.440 --> 00:34:52.139
And<00:34:50.579><c> that's</c><00:34:50.840><c> the</c><00:34:50.960><c> spirit</c><00:34:51.099><c> of</c><00:34:51.320><c> Philip,</c><00:34:51.599><c> isn't</c><00:34:51.719><c> it,</c><00:34:51.760><c> as</c><00:34:51.920><c> we've</c>

00:34:52.139 --> 00:34:53.460
come<00:34:52.260><c> to</c><00:34:52.400><c> know</c><00:34:52.639><c> him.</c>

00:34:54.000 --> 00:34:57.320
This<00:34:54.239><c> Philip,</c><00:34:54.480><c> who</c><00:34:54.639><c> was</c><00:34:54.940><c> preacher</c><00:34:55.219><c> to</c><00:34:55.460><c> many,</c><00:34:56.519><c> the</c><00:34:56.780><c> evangelist</c>

00:34:57.320 --> 00:34:59.059
of<00:34:57.579><c> saving</c><00:34:57.900><c> truth,</c>

00:34:59.619 --> 00:35:02.159
was<00:34:59.780><c> quite</c><00:35:00.079><c> content</c><00:35:00.460><c> to</c><00:35:00.679><c> wait</c><00:35:00.820><c> on</c><00:35:00.980><c> the</c><00:35:01.199><c> Father</c><00:35:01.420><c> to</c><00:35:01.659><c> use</c><00:35:01.880><c> him,</c>

00:35:02.280 --> 00:35:05.960
and<00:35:02.460><c> to</c><00:35:02.679><c> step</c><00:35:02.860><c> aside</c><00:35:03.239><c> in</c><00:35:03.460><c> favor</c><00:35:03.719><c> of</c><00:35:04.059><c> another</c><00:35:04.260><c> where</c><00:35:04.820><c> that</c><00:35:05.179><c> might</c><00:35:05.460><c> best</c>

00:35:05.960 --> 00:35:06.840
serve<00:35:06.380><c> the</c><00:35:06.659><c> truth.</c>

00:35:06.840 --> 00:35:13.340
So<00:35:07.360><c> what</c><00:35:07.539><c> happens</c><00:35:07.840><c> is</c><00:35:08.039><c> this.</c><00:35:08.639><c> If</c><00:35:08.760><c> you</c><00:35:08.860><c> can</c><00:35:08.960><c> just</c><00:35:09.159><c> imagine</c><00:35:09.539><c> my</c><00:35:09.900><c> hands</c><00:35:10.320><c> here</c><00:35:10.559><c> sketching</c><00:35:11.079><c> an</c><00:35:11.300><c> imaginary</c><00:35:11.780><c> map</c><00:35:12.119><c> just</c><00:35:12.360><c> for</c><00:35:12.579><c> a</c><00:35:12.639><c> moment.</c>

00:44:26.860 --> 00:44:30.420

00:46:09.800 --> 00:46:13.059
Oh,<00:46:09.940><c> and</c><00:46:10.079><c> where</c><00:46:10.260><c> are</c><00:46:10.440><c> they?</c><00:46:10.760><c> Acts</c><00:46:11.199><c> chapter</c><00:46:11.840><c> 21</c><00:46:12.559><c> verse</c><00:46:12.880><c> 9.</c>

Where<00:46:13.239><c> are</c><00:46:13.460><c> the</c><00:46:13.599><c> daughters?</c>

00:46:15.980 --> 00:46:18.719
Well,<00:46:16.579><c> they're</c><00:46:16.780><c> obviously</c><00:46:17.019><c> living</c><00:46:17.260><c> with</c><00:46:17.519><c> their</c><00:46:17.800><c> fathers.</c>

00:46:19.840 --> 00:46:23.719
They're<00:46:20.340><c> obviously</c><00:46:20.679><c> at</c><00:46:21.739><c> home</c><00:46:22.239><c> with</c><00:46:22.780><c> Philip.</c>

00:46:24.619 --> 00:46:26.360
And<00:46:24.780><c> I</c><00:46:24.840><c> think</c><00:46:25.039><c> that</c><00:46:25.179><c> what</c><00:46:25.280><c> that</c><00:46:25.579><c> tells</c><00:46:25.739><c> us</c><00:46:25.900><c> is</c><00:46:26.000><c> they</c><00:46:26.099><c> were</c>

00:46:32.239 --> 00:46:35.000
They<00:46:32.380><c> were</c><00:46:32.559><c> committed</c><00:46:32.840><c> to</c><00:46:33.059><c> the</c><00:46:33.219><c> work</c><00:46:33.380><c> of</c><00:46:33.539><c> Philip,</c><00:46:33.920><c> their</c><00:46:34.079><c> father.</c>

00:46:36.539 --> 00:46:38.980
Now<00:46:36.719><c> you</c><00:46:36.800><c> see</c><00:46:36.920><c> it's</c><00:46:37.139><c> interesting</c><00:46:37.519><c> that</c><00:46:37.760><c> the</c><00:46:37.980><c> Holy</c><00:46:38.260><c> Spirit</c><00:46:38.639><c> power</c>

00:46:41.599 --> 00:46:44.659
It<00:46:41.659><c> was</c><00:46:42.440><c> morally</c><00:46:42.760><c> impossible</c><00:46:43.460><c> that</c><00:46:43.960><c> the</c><00:46:44.179><c> Holy</c><00:46:44.420><c> Spirit</c>

00:46:51.019 --> 00:46:53.539
it<00:46:51.139><c> would</c><00:46:51.360><c> give</c><00:46:51.500><c> an</c><00:46:51.699><c> unfair</c><00:46:52.099><c> advantage</c><00:46:52.599><c> to</c><00:46:52.780><c> those</c><00:46:53.039><c> who</c><00:46:53.260><c> got</c><00:46:53.400><c> it</c>

over<00:46:53.739><c> those</c><00:46:53.980><c> who</c><00:46:54.099><c> didn't</c><00:46:54.420><c> receive</c><00:46:54.780><c> it.</c>

00:46:56.199 --> 00:46:59.500
So<00:46:56.420><c> the</c><00:46:56.699><c> character</c><00:46:57.179><c> of</c><00:46:57.420><c> a</c><00:46:57.519><c> person</c><00:46:57.980><c> was</c><00:46:58.440><c> not</c><00:46:58.639><c> actually</c><00:46:59.059><c> changed</c>
