Acts

Acts of the Apostles is basically a History Book with several sermons. It was written by Luke, who was a Gentile doctor, around 60 - 62 A.D. It's his sequel to the Gospel of Luke and it emphasizes that this book records the 'acts of the Apostles through the work of the Holy Spirit'. It records how believers were empowered by the Holy Spirit, worked to spread the Gospel of Christ and are a model for the future church.

Acts of the Apostles is also the history of the birth, the founding and the spread of the Church from Jerusalem to Rome. It also records the transition of the Church from being almost exclusively a Jewish institution into becoming a Gentile and an international institution. Consequently, it records the transition of Christianity from a Jewish religion into an international faith. The Gospel of salvation is for all because Jesus Christ is Lord of all.

This book is relevant to the world today because it tells us when Christianity began. In this guide, we take a deeper look into the scriptures and explain it to you in layman terms. The humor and cartoon illustrations are included just for fun.

This guide is perfect for Bible study groups and individual studies.
