How to submit items to the community calendar: We appreciate your community news. Here’s how you can help us to process your news more efficiently: witness. Philip’s question opened the door for him to do as God commissioned His people. “How can I, unless someone guides me?” Was he not guided while in Jerusalem, maybe because of who he was? So, an invitation is extended for Philip to join him in his chariot. “The place in the Scripture which he read was this”: (Isaiah 53:7,8). This particular passage of Scripture was questioned even by Jewish religious experts. Some believed the slaughtered sheep represented Israel, others thought Isaiah was referring to himself, and others thought the Messiah was Isaiah’s subject. “I ask you, of whom does the prophet say this, of himself or of some other man?” (verse 34). “Then Philip opened his mouth and beginning at the Scripture, preached Jesus to him” (verse 35). Philip was able to tell the Ethiopian how the prophecies in Isaiah 53 described the sacrificial, sin-bearing work of the Messiah to come. Explain-

Picks

From page B1 ing who Jesus is and what He has done for us is the essence of the gospel.

Hill, but with the weapons they added to complement what they already had in place; it was only a matter of time before the team gelled together as a unit. It looks like another division title is in store for Kansas City.

The Los Angeles Chargers have been a head scratcher so far this year because I can’t quite figure them out. Granted they have been dealing with a few injuries, most notably to their star wide receiver Keenan Allen, but their record stands at only 4-3 after an embarrassing loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.

They have been very inconsistent this season, with their lone bright spot being running back Austin Eckler. Other than Eckler, there has been little to cheer about consistently for the Chargers. The Chargers have not beaten any of the quality teams on their schedule and in fact, have a couple of puzzling losses against teams they should have beaten.

Even star quarterback Justin Herbert is off to somewhat of a slow start based on the standards he has set so far. Admittedly, he is dealing with a rib injury and Allen’s hamstring injury doesn’t help, but their offense just doesn’t quite look like it did last year. Herbert has thrown for 2,009 yards, 12 touchdowns and 4 interceptions. The Chargers have a favorable remaining schedule, so hopefully they can get on track, so my prediction doesn’t look that bad.

The Ethiopian Confesses Christ (verses 3639). There must have been a part of Philip’s preaching that included baptism –“See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?” (verse 36). The Ethiopian was ready to respond to the gospel – he wanted to be baptized to declare his belief. “… If you believe with all your heart, you may.” – “I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.” (verse 37). Philip asks for and receives a declaration of faith and proceeds to baptize the eunuch. “Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch saw him no more; and he went on his way rejoicing (verse 39). Philip is transported supernaturally by the Spirit. This is a powerful confirmation to the eunuch and the entire caravan that Philip was God’s representative. The eunuch’s joy – “He went on his way rejoicing” - shows that his faith was in God, not in

I am not sure what is leading to this inconsistent play from the Chargers. They have continuity on the sidelines and have added some pieces on defense, so I can’t put my finger on why they have not played up to their talent level. I think they will be a playoff team considering Allen should be back to full health after the bye week.

Now when it comes to the Las Vegas Raiders, I really don’t know what to think. Coming into the season, I thought the Raiders would have one of the best and most explosive offenses in the league, with the addition of wide receiver Davante Adams. It has not worked out that way and the Raiders have limped out to a 2-4 record after seven weeks.

Vegas got out of the gates slow this season, losing their first three games. They then beat a bad Denver Broncos team, played Kansas City well but lost, and then beat the Houston Texans coming off of the bye week.

Running back Josh Jacobs and Adams have played very well, but surprisingly quarterback Derek Carr has not. Carr has been very up and down this season. He is only completing 63% of his passes, with 1,520 yards, 9 touchdowns and 4 interceptions. It feels like Carr has been overly targeting Adams to the detriment of his other weapons. Darren Waller and Hunter Renfrow’s stats have dropped dramatically from last year. I think getting them more involved will bode well for the team. They are not out of it yet, but I don’t think the playoffs are in the Raiders’ future this season.

Philip. (The UMI Annual Commentary 2021-2022, The MacArthur Study Bible, The Modern Life Study Bible, The Jesus Bible, The Tony Evans Study Bible and The Oxford Bible Commentary).

For Your Consideration: What is your impression of the Ethiopian eunuch? How does he represent black people?

Application: As believers we are to know the Scriptures so that we are prepared to help unbelievers properly understand the gospel, as well as help fellow believers grow in their faith. Commit to daily personal devotion, prayer, and Bible study. Select a quiet time and place to do an uninterrupted reading of and meditation on the Word of God.

FYI: Forsyth County Sunday School Union will meet “virtually” every third Sunday, at 3 p.m. with teaching and programs. You may join using the following “Zoom” credentials: ID 819 7872 9662, Passcode 787444, Phone: 1-301-715-8592.

Lastly, it’s the Denver Broncos who currently sit at 2-5 on the season and starting quarterback Russell Wilson was benched last week due to multiple injuries and possibly bad play. After his trade from the Seattle Seahawks during the offseason, Wilson signed a five-year extension with the Broncos through the 2028 season worth $245 million and includes $165 million guaranteed.

Wilson has put up some of the worst numbers of his career so far this year. His numbers are 1,442 yards passing, with only 5 touchdowns and 3 interceptions. With the weapons he had at his disposal to start the season, I never thought Wilson’s numbers would look so pedestrian. I know the injuries have contributed to the bad numbers, but I think it’s more to do with the system they run in Denver. I am not sure it matches Wilson’s improv style of play. I don’t think the Broncos will be “letting Russ cook” anytime soon and I think that means the same for their playoff hopes as well. No playoffs for Denver.

All in all, I wasn’t totally off base with my predictions. I think I overvalued some of the additions some of the teams made during the offseason. We still have a long way to go and things can change at the drop of a hat. With that being said, I feel confident that the Chiefs and Chargers will make the playoffs, while the Raiders and Broncos will fight for finishing above .500.
