About this video

Runtime: 29 mins

Steve Walton discusses the Acts of the Apostles. The beginning of Acts echoes Luke's Gospel, indicating the same author, with Luke's narrative in Acts includes "we" passages, suggesting his first-hand experience. Though some argue these could be literary conventions, the simplest explanation is Luke travelled with Paul. Luke is identified in Paul's letters as a beloved physician and is mentioned as being with Paul near the end of Paul's life. Luke's detailed accounts, such as geographic and administrative accuracy, and his close association with Paul, suggest he meticulously researched and documented early Christian history and Paul's journeys.
