Philip was a Calvinist as that is where Calvinists get the teaching, from scripture. It does not depend on Calvin or Augustine....Calvinism is a term...Moses was a Calvinist, The Old testament Prophets were Calvinists. They believed God was absolutely in control of whatsoever comes to pass.
I notice how once again, you totally ignore the help offered to you as if it was not offered!
I will repeat that verse for you again;
35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
I will post it again, if you or the other deniers missed it;
Philip, being a good Calvinist, started at the same scripture, and supplied the biblical meaning of what the text was speaking of.
The Holy Spirit was instrumental in this.
How do Calvinists know this?
A plain reading of Isaiah 53 does not mention the name of Jesus.
That means Philip [a man] was used by the Holy Spirit to supply the truths of PSA to the Eunuch, and reveal the LORD JESUS CHRIST was the actual Identity of this Suffering servant. In fact Philip did exactly tell him, this is what I think it means, as well as the truth of believers baptism.
For some reason Silverhair and the other anti'Cals deny this clear teaching found in the text. They do this over and over. showing a spirit of rebellion and unbelief.
You have lost your mind Z. Philip could not be a calvinist as 1] it had not been invented yet. Had to wait for augustine for that and 2] Philip just used the word of God as written. No additions or twisting of the text.
He was biblical not anti-biblical as you seem to think he was.
