The Acts of the Apostles is a book about transitions. From Salvation for Jews only to Salvation for Gentiles. From Law to Grace. From the Gospel of the Apostles to the Gospel of Paul. From Temple Sacrifice and Worship to personal sacrifice and church worship. Luke was the author of LUKE and ACTS. For who he is see Colossians 4:10-14, 2 Timothy 4:11. Theophilus (beloved of God) some believe is a real person, others believe this means all believers.
Let’s begin the walk, take a step:
⇨ Acts 1 ⇨ Acts 2 ⇨ Acts 3 ⇨ Acts 4 ⇨ Acts 5
⇨ Acts 6 ⇨ Acts 7 ⇨ Acts 8 ⇨ Acts 9 ⇨ Acts 10
⇨ Acts 11 ⇨ Acts 12 ⇨ Acts 13 ⇨ Acts 14 ⇨ Acts 15
⇨ Acts 16 ⇨ Acts 17 ⇨ Acts 18 ⇨ Acts 19 ⇨ Acts 20
⇨ Acts 21 ⇨ Acts 22 ⇨ Acts 23 ⇨ Acts 24 ⇨ Acts 25
⇨ Acts 26 ⇨ Acts 27 ⇨ Acts 28
A quick summary covers 29 AD to 68 AD (dates per chapter are best estimate). Paul went to unbelieving Jews and then to the Gentiles during each of his 3 apostolic journeys. His grace assemblies (churches) were comprised of these two groups of new believers. Travel to Asia (13:3-14:28) Greece/Macedonia (15:40-18:22) Asia/Greece/Macedonia (18:23-21:16) finally Rome (28:16-31)
