Christ Is Preached in Samaria

4 Therefore athose who were scattered went everywhere preaching the word.  
5 Then aPhilip went down to the city of Samaria and preached Christ to them.  
6 And the multitudes with one accord heeded the things spoken by Philip, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.
7 For aunclean spirits, crying with a loud voice, came out of many who were possessed; and many who were paralyzed and lame were healed.  
8 And there was great joy in that city.

The Sorcerer’s Profession of Faith

9 But there was a certain man called Simon, who previously apracticed sorcery in the city and bastonished the people of Samaria, claiming that he was someone great,  
10 to whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is the great power of God.”

Acts 8:6-8

Acts 8:6-8 The people with one accord gave heed. It was the miracles that, at first, fixed their attention. Observe that Philip, another of the seven, has the gift of miracles, the second recorded instance in the church of the possession of this power by one not an apostle (for the first, see Acts 6:8). Acts 8:9 describes the nature of his miracles, similar to those of Christ. See PNT "Mt 4:24". See also Mark 3:11 Lu 4:41.
