5 The World of The New Testament
6 INTRODUCTION TO ACTS Acts is our primary source of what took place during the first 30+ years of the Church s existence. Luke is the human author, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Both Luke and Acts were addressed to Theophilus (Gk. Friend of God). Most excellent Lk 1:3 suggests high rank. Acts was written in Rome about 63 AD.
7 MEET LUKE Luke was a physician. Col. 4:14 He may have been a native of Antioch. He refers to it 18 times. He was a companion of Paul. Note the we sections: 50 times in 16:10-17; 20:6-21:18; 27:1-28:16. He was faithful to Paul to the end. II Tim 4:11
8 A COMPARISON OF THE GOSPELS AND ACTS Gospels What Jesus began to do and teach (Acts 1:1) Acts What Jesus continued to do and teach Foundation of the Church (Matt 16:18; Eph 2:19-22) Origin and growth of the Church (Acts 2:1,41,47, 4:4, 5:14, 6:1,7; 9:31,35,42)
9 Key Verse of Acts Acts 1:8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.
10 A BASIC OUTLINE OF ACTS Suggested by Paul N. Benware, Survey of the New Testament, p. 126, also MacArthur Study Bible, p 1597 The Witness to Jerusalem Chapters 1-7 The Witness to Judea and Samaria Chapters 8-12 The Witness to the Ends of the Earth Chapters 13 28
11 < Samaria < Judea < Jerusalem
12 OTHER WAYS TO OUTLINE ACTS Geographically From Jerusalem to Antioch (chaps. 1 12) From Antioch to Rome (chaps ) Biographically Ministry of Peter and Others (chaps. 1 12) Ministry of Paul and Others (chaps ) Theologically The Ascension of Christ (Chap. 1) The Descension of the Spirit (Chap. 2) The Extension of the Gospel (chaps. 3 28) Norman L. Geisler, A Popular Survey of the New Testament, p. 128
13 A Fuller Outline of Acts Norman L. Geisler, A Popular Survey of the New Testament, pp The Formation of the Church. (Acts 1 7) Jerusalem 2. The Transition of the Church. (Acts 8-12) Judea and Samaria 3. The Expansion of the Church. (Acts 13-28) The ends of the earth
14 Where the Gospel Went in Acts
15 I. The Formation of the Church Jerusalem: Acts 1 7 A. The first days of the church (Acts 1-3) The Ascension of Jesus (Acts 1) The Descension of the Spirit (Acts 2) The Expansion of the church (2:41 4:4) B. The first persecution of the church (Acts 4) C. The first discipline in the church (5:1-11) D. The first deacons in the church (6:1-6) E. The first martyr in the church (Acts 7)
16 II. The Transition of the Church Judea & Samaria: Acts 8-12 A. Three conversions (8:1 11:18) Eunuch, An Ethiopian (8:26-29) son of Ham Saul, a Tarsian (9:1 19) son of Shem Cornelius, an Italian (chap. 10) son of Japheth B. Two persecutions (11:19 12:25) Because of Stephen (11:19-30) Because of Peter (Acts 12)
17 III. The Expansion of the Church The ends of the earth: Acts A. Paul s first missionary journey (Acts 13-14) B. The first church summit (Acts 15) C. Paul s second missionary journey (Acts 16:1-18:17) D. Paul s third missionary journey (Acts 18:18-18:16) E. Paul s first imprisonment (Acts 28:17-31) F. Paul s second imprisonment (2 nd Timothy)
18 WHY WAS ACTS WRITTEN? Historically: To give an accurate record of the early church. Spiritually: To confirm the faith of Theophilos. Legally: To explain Paul s journeys in the right light: not a traitor to Rome, thus vindicating him of charges. Polemically (to refute errors): To show that Paul was not an apostate from Judaism or the law. Apologetically (to defend truth): To show how God authenticated early Christianity by miracles through the apostles. Ecclesiastically: To show the unity of the Christian movement in the doctrine of the apostles. 1:2, 2:42, 4:32, 6:5 Missiologically: To give an accurate account of the spread of early Christianity. Norman L. Geisler, A Popular Survey of the New Testament, p. 125
19 ACTS IS TRANSITIONAL Acts is a bridge from the Gospels to the Epistles. Acts should be interpreted by the Epistles (not the reverse). Some did not receive the Holy Spirit when they believed. Acts 19:2 Later they received the Holy Spirit when they believed. Rom. 8:9 The apostolic office was temporary (Acts 1:21-22) The apostolic gifts were temporary (2Cor. 12:12)

31 The Holy Spirit is mentioned 54 times in Acts All the successes in the book of Acts are the direct result of the Holy Spirit empowering God s people to do God s work as Christ builds his Church. The same Holy Spirit who worked mightily in the first generation of the Church is just as eager and able to work mightily in an through us in this generation. Let s let Him!
