It takes 7 chapter, or a long period of time for the apostles to realize that Jesus meant what he said. Acts 1:8 you will be my witness in Jerusalem, in all Judea, and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. It takes Stephan's death to jump start the gospel.
Paul is on the move in this chapter. He ravages the Christian people, placing them in jail. Most of the Christian followers leave town, while the apostles stand their ground.
Philip, one who left Jerusalem, began spreading the Good News in the city of Samaria. He was healing the sick and lame. This had a huge impact on the spreading of the Church.
An Angel of the Lord spoke to Philip. He said to go to Gaza. Philip finds an Ethiopian in need of translation. Philip helps and baptizes him. The Gospel is on the move!!!!!!!
