On this Memorial Day weekend, I’m thinking about Philip. Per a Heavenly angel’s command, Philip intercepted an Ethiopian in a chariot on the Jerusalem to Gaza road. Philip helped him understand Scripture and then baptized him. After they left the water, God teleported Philip to another place called Azotus. If Philip and the Ethiopian were at Gaza when God made Philip disappear, the NIV Study Bible says that would be roughly 20 miles away. Teleporting Philip over about 20 miles? I wonder what Philip was thinking. Maybe it was a memorable thrill ride that he described to others on Earth. And it’s possible that he could have told/can tell his teleportation tale to others in Heaven.
