Philip’s Transporter “Beam me up, Scotty!” This exact phrase was never actually used on Star Trek; nevertheless, it describes the fictional invention of the transporter. Will this kind of technology ever be possible? Perhaps…but thousands of years ago, God did something similar with Philip. He said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him. Acts 8:31 Philip’s missionary journey began unusually with an angel directing him to meet an Ethiopian court official, who then invited Philip up in his chariot to explain a passage in Isaiah. Philip told him all about Jesus. Philip baptized the Ethiopian – and then God instantly transported the missionary to Azota (about 40 miles away) where he preached in the area. The Ethiopian, undoubtedly inspired by both the amazing event and his new spiritual hope, went on his way rejoicing. Technology has advanced in 2,000 years, yet the transporter remains fiction. God holds the secrets to all unexplained events that have happened throughout history. Of all the mysteries God has revealed, the most important one is how to receive eternal life – and it starts with a simple four-word phrase, spoken to Jesus: “Come into my life.” Pray more of the nation’s leaders and citizens will find salvation in Christ.
