I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even GREATER THINGS than these because I am going to the Father. John 14:12
Philip: - Lord Show us the Father and that will be enough for us. John 14:8
Jesus: “You've been with me all this time, Philip, and you still don’t understand? To see me is to see the Father. So how can you ask, “Where is the Father? Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you aren’t mere words. I don’t just make them up on my own. The Father who resides in me crafts each word into a divine act. “ John 14:9-11, The Message
Jesus: “If you can’t believe that - can you believe on the miracles you have seen?”
“Philip went down to a city in Samaria and proclaimed Christ. When the crowds heard Philip and saw the miraculous signs he did, they all paid close attention to what he said. With shrieks, evil spirits came out of many, and many paralytics and cripples were healed. So, there was great joy in that city." Acts 8:4
“Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Go south to the road, the desert road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza “ So he started out and on his way he met an Ethiopian eunuch, an important official in charge of all the treasury of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians. Then Philip ran up to the chariot and heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet. “ Do you understand what you are reading ?” Philip asked , “How can I , he said, unless someone explains it to me” . So, he invited Philip to come up and sit with him." Acts 8:26-31
He had 4 daughters who prophesied. Acts 21:9
