The Apostle Paul was almost ambushed by 40 men in Jerusalem. These men had taken a vow not to eat or drink until they had killed him. However, Paul's nephew learned of their plot and informed him, leading to a Roman commander escorting Paul safely out of the city. This event is detailed in the Book of Acts, specifically Acts 23:12-22.

Was Philip a deciple?
Scripturally, there is no reason to think they are the same person.The very purpose of choosing men to be deacons was so that the apostles could devote themselves to "the word of God" rather than "serving tables" (Acts 6:2). It's quite a stretch to imagine the apostle Philip "stepping down" from the apostleship into the role of deacon and itinerant evangelist.Also, as the deacons are introduced by name in Acts 6:5, Stephen is prominent, then Philip and the others. If Philip were the apostle, he would be prominent. Also, the manner of presentation is clear that these men are being newly introduced to scripture.In the following verse, the seven are "set before the apostles" to be commissioned. There's a clear distinction between the apostles and the deacons which further denies that Philip the apostle and Philip the deacon are the same person. All evidence is that they were two different men.
