After God used Philip to save many Samaritans, he sent him to evangelize one who had come from the ends of the Earth.
The Thessalonian believers followed the good example of their faithful ministers.
Although many Jews did not believe the gospel and many non-Jews did, everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
