À propos de cet audio
The Seed Of Instruction.
In this episode we look at passages about the Apostle Phillip the Deacon from Acts chapter 8. The Apostle with a Greek name (same as the father of Alexander of Macedon) preaches to and baptizes Samaritans; and he takes the Gospel to the farthest regions where there was little or no chance for life. The Biblical emphasis is on progeny through instruction, which it presents as parallel with biological reproduction - see the Parable of the Sower from Mark 4, Luke 8, and Matthew 13. This emphasis is underscored in the passage of Phillip’s encounter with the Ethiopian eunuch. He is someone with no chance for progeny, and he happens to be reading Isaiah 53, a text in which the servant of the Lord is said to offer up himself and in doing so “see his seed,” and “prolong his days.”
