COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The Book of Acts is the continuation of the work of Jesus through His body, the church. Luke
wrote in the beginning verse of Acts, “I wrote the first narrative, Theophilus, all that Jesus began
to do and teach...” (Acts 1:1). The Gospel of Luke records the life of Christ on the earth. The
Book of Acts records the work and life of Jesus being continued in the life of the New Testament
body of believers, the church of Christ. Acts is a history of the work of the Holy Spirit through
the people of God in the 1st century.
The purpose of our study is to see the work of God through His people to bring about the growth
of His church in the world so that we can more effectively engage in it. We will also see the
attempts of Satan to destroy the church of our Lord. However, the power of God prevails over
each attack launched by Satan. In Luke’s accounting, we will see the church alive and fulfilling
His commission for His followers to make disciples of every nation. (Matthew 28:18-20).
