Do you think Apollos was an Apostle (not one of the 12) or an Evangelist?
I believe he was an Apostle, subsequent to the 12 Apostles, because he travelled to give the gospel.
Philip is different. What I believe is that though he travelled also and gave the gospel until he got to Caesarea (Acts 8.4-40), it seems as though his destination as an evangelist was for the locality of Caesarea, and not the work of a regional Apostle like Apollos.
The work of an evangelist is for a location, not a televion station or region of churches. The work of an Apostle is for a region of churches, not cable stations or particular location.
