Summary
The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead is supported "by many proofs" according to Acts 1:3. The writer of the book of Acts was a medical doctor and missionary named Luke. He also wrote the Gospel of Luke. It is interesting how he dedicated both works to someone named, Theophilus. Listen to what this same author noted was his motivation for writing the Gospel record, "1 Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile a narrative of the things that have been accomplished among us, 2 just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word have delivered them to us, 3 it seemed good to me also, having followed all things closely for some time past, to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, 4 that you may have certainty concerning the things you have been taught." Those in the medical field know how important good research is to obtaining certainty. Luke put his research skills to use in investigating the credibility of the bodily resurrection of Christ and wrote at least seven proofs that assure us that Jesus indeed has been raised from the dead. Confirmation of Multiple Written Accounts, 1:1 Affirmation of Various Reliable Eyewitnesses, 1:2-3 Compilation of Undeniable, Verifiable Evidence, 1:3 Continuation over an Extended Period of Time, 1:3 Corroboration of Simultaneous Group Sightings, 1:4-7 Realization of Relevant Prophetic Predictions, 1:4-7 Validation of Globally Convinced Disciples, 1:8 -- Growing in Grace Devotions and Inspirations Hosted by Pastor Victor Morrison First Baptist Church 1700 Milam Street Columbus, TX, USA 78934 http://fbccolumbustx.org/
