PENT 0507 - Luke

The purpose of this section-by-section analysis of the third gospel is to determine what Luke wanted his audience to hear. Our approach to his gospel proceeds from the premise that the author was both an historian and a theologian, who chose to communicate through narrative his account of Jesus Christ. Although the introductory matters are dealt with and some comparisons with the writings of Mark and Matthew are drawn, the focus is on Luke’s narrative. Having done our work, the question is asked: "What is the Spirit saying through Luke to us?" Also a New Testament credit (NEWT 0725). Offered annually.
