Egyptian Christians

ACTS 2:5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem , devout men, out of every nation under heaven ...
ACTS 2:10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in *EGYPT*, and in the parts of Libya.
Let me see: In Acts 2:5 we find devout men of every nation and in Acts 2:10 we find Egyptians are included in those devout Christians.


MATTHEW 2:13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appear to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into *EGYPT*, and be you there until I bring you word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.
MATTHEW 2:14 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into *EGYPT*:
MATTHEW 2:15 And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of *EGYPT* have I called my son.

Egypt 10-F


Find how long after Joseph fled into Egypt till the time Christ died and know how old Christ was when he left Egypt. It is not known but we know Egypt was the childhood home of Christ. We know there were Egyptians were devout followers of Christ AND by the prophecy of the scriptures, we know when God comes to set up his home on the mountain, that he will gather descendants of the Israelites out of Egypt.

 

Jesus spent his childhood living in Egypt with other little Arab children. He is not found in Israel until he was 12 years old. What Christ did in Egypt in his youth is only a guess, but we know in Acts there were Christian Egyptians who followed him.

That it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of *EGYPT* have I called my son.
