The Outsider Made Insider - Curate Katy Partridge on the Ethiopian Eunuch
18 minutes Posted Oct 17, 2021 at 2:05 pm.
-39, Katy takes us into the saddened heart of the Ethiopian Eunuch, faithfully but somewhat dejectedly reading the Scriptures. Since he was banned from entering the Temple by those same Scriptures, he had no-one to explain them. Katy paints the picture of Philip, as an Hellenistic Jew and himself an outsider, being led by the Holy Spirit to run alongside the carriage and hear the Eunuch's lament. Invited to join the stranger in his carriage, Philip shows from the verses the Ethiopian was reading how Jesus became the silent Lamb led to the slaughter so that outsiders could become insiders. His eyes opened, the Eunuch exclaims, "What is there to prevent me from being baptized?" That moment, he became an insider of God's grace.
