The rest of the story of Jesus' work is to be told in the rest of Acts. Thus, we can actually learn about Christ as He lives out ina and thru the Body.

I like where Luke leaves off and seems to pick up in Acts, as one would see a movie with an intermission. I'm giving the models of Christ represented in each Gospel to my students right now, but I haven't brought up the any connection of Luke and Acts yet. Would you suggest that I make this link, leave it alone, or a least toss the idea to my students? I'm just not sure.<BR/><BR/>-Jason FarrellJason F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11000217878461702601noreply@blogger.com
