Here is a ridiculously long post which I hope someone out there won't mind taking the time to read, like maybe someone who writes long posts their self. ;) I actually wrote this in October of last year for a New Testament class, but I hope you enjoy and are encouraged by it. The author of Acts is Luke, who also wrote the book baring his name. Acts is believed to have been written in the mid A.D 60s. What is the author telling me in Acts 1:1-6:7?
