Read the following scripture passages together showing how the Apostle Philip introduced people to Jesus:

John 1:43-48

One day, Jesus was walking and saw a man named Philip. Jesus said to Philip, "Come with me!". Philip was so happy! He ran to find his friend, Nathaniel, and said, "We found him! The special person the old stories talk about! His name is Jesus, and he's from a town called Nazareth!". Nathaniel was not so sure. "Nazareth?" he asked. "Can anything good come from that little town?". But Philip just said, "Come and see!".

As Nathaniel walked toward Jesus, Jesus said, "Here comes a truly good man. He is honest and has no tricks in his heart.". Nathaniel was surprised. "How do you know me?" he asked. Jesus smiled and said, "Before Philip even called you, I saw you. I saw you sitting under a fig tree". Nathaniel was amazed. He knew only God could know something like that. He knew Jesus was very special.

John 12:20-22

Philip went and told another one of Jesus's helpers named Andrew.Then Andrew and Philip both went to Jesus and told him that these people wanted to meet him.
