In the account of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch (Acts 8:26-40), the story ended without telling whether the Ethiopian eunuch received the Holy Spirit.

In an earlier account about Philip in Samaria (Acts 8:5-17), it said Philip performed great signs and miracles (vv13), and many were baptized (vv12). However, it was when Peter and John came to Samaria, that they received the Holy Spirit (vv17)

12 But when they believed Philip as he proclaimed the good news of the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

13 Simon himself believed and was baptized. And he followed Philip everywhere, astonished by the great signs and miracles he saw.

14 When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to Samaria.

17 Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.

Is there enough evidence that Philip was not able to baptize people with Holy Spirit, and that the Ethiopian eunuch didn’t receive the Holy Spirit?
