Adam explains this unusual story for us in this video. Why did Paul include in the Bible book of Acts, this passage telling us of the Ethiopian eunuch? What is God’s purpose for us today in providing this word to us? But Philip had an amazing experience and enlightenment that speaks volumes to us now. And his experience is easy to understand when we think about it, and it demonstrates to us effective living and obedience. However, it can be unsettling, particularly to us males, when we read Deuteronomy 23:1 ‘No one who has been emasculated by crushing or cutting may enter the assembly of the LORD.’ Yet Acts 8:27 tells us that the Ethiopian was also a worshiper of God.
