Philip Preaches the Good News in Samaria

4 Now those who had been scattered went around preaching the message of good news. 5 Philip went down to [fn]a city of Samaria and began proclaiming to them the Christ. 6 With one accord the crowds paid close attention to what Philip said as they listened to him and saw the signs he was performing. 7 For unclean spirits came out of many who had them, crying out with a loud voice, and many who were paralyzed or lame were healed. 8 And there was great joy in that city.
