Luke the Historian: The Book of Acts
Acts forms an indispensable link between the accounts of Jesus' life (Gospels), their preaching in Acts (Kerygma) and their interpretations and applications in the New Testament letters. The early church developed and circulated two collections of NT writings: (1) the Gospels (four) and (2) the Apostle (Paul's letters). However, with the rise of the Christological heresies of the second century, the value of Acts became obvious. Acts reveals the content and purpose of Apostolic preaching (the Kerygma), as well as the amazing results of the gopel message. Part of the "You Can Understand the Bible"TM series by Dr. Bob Utley, Professor of Hermeneutics (retired). For more of Dr. Utley's Bible study guides, go to www.freebiblecommentary.org.
