What does Acts 8 teach about God’s sovereignty in evangelism?

Answered in 1 source

Acts 8 illustrates God's sovereignty by showing how He directs Philip to meet the Ethiopian eunuch, demonstrating His control over salvation.

In Acts 8, God sovereignly orchestrates the evangelization of the Ethiopian eunuch by sending Philip to a specific road at a precise moment in time. This moment highlights God's active role in seeking out His chosen, demonstrating that evangelism is not merely a human endeavor but a divine appointment. Philip’s obedience to God’s direction exemplifies the urgency and specificity with which God works through His servants. The eunuch's response further illustrates this divine interaction, as he is prepared by God to receive the message of the Gospel. Thus, this passage serves not only as a historical account but also as a theological affirmation of God's sovereign hand in the process of salvation.
