The book of Acts is all about the earliest Christianity. It shows us something about the character of the earliest Christianity, especially about where the church got its power. The book of Acts, but also the Bible in general, is bound to surprise you. No matter what your culture or what your class, no matter what conceptions and categories you come to the Bible with, it will smash some of them.
This story in Acts about Philip and the Ethiopian is the same way. It will show us the inclusivity of Christianity; the exclusivity of Christianity; and the grounding for both. Most people see Christianity as either inclusive or exclusive, but the fact is Christianity is both.
This Month's Featured Book
This month, as a thank you for your gift, we’ll send you two copies of Making Sense of God. We hope it provides a way for you to do a small act to share the gospel—and we’re trusting that God will provide opportunities for you to give one or both books to people in your life who are searching for truth.
