Thanks @barncat for at least stopping by to share your understanding.

About Philip, i will agree with you for the fact that he himself introduced Nicodemus to Jesus with the word: "I have seen the Messiah". It may also be true that some understanding had been kept from them at that time because they may not be well equipped compared to this present age. But the fact remains that " As it was in the beginning, is it now and ever shall it be"... Not everyone has fully grasped the message as you think. The more you ask them about Jesus, the more they admit their ignorance.

Thanks once more for the comments...please come around next time.
