With the release of his new book "Acts: An Exegetical Commentary" (Baker Academic, 2012), we sat down to with Dr. Craig Keener to discuss the book of Acts as history.
Craig S. Keener is one of the humblest, yet knowledgeable scholars on Brit Hadasha that the 21st century has. His books also have the least amount of Western bias that I have ever encountered.
I learned and found it interesting that Luke's two books are almost the identical in length.
THATS SOMETHING I NEVER THOUGHT OF.
Cool
1 Corinthians 15:1-4
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
I just want to know if book of acts in the bible was written before or after Jesus' death?
After
Yes after, however the traditions contained in them could be from around the time of his death
Jesus Christ endorses whatever you do in word or deed do it in my Name Mark 16 15 18 in my Name or in the name of Jesus Christ is a name that's above all Names obey Acts 2 38

Strangely, or maybe not, he conveniently failed to mention the many major differences between the two accounts. Least western bias? Please study Galations 2 and Acts chapter 9 onwards.
Reformed Apologetics Ministries could you give me some sources? and in which volume in his huge commentary?
The church,you,me and the neighborhood cat need less of these guys. They are the modern scribe and pharisee.
The book of Acts is a work of revisionist history and deliberate deception. For one, it mentions the association of Antioch with the term Christian, but does not mention the fact, as is clear from the writings of second century bishop of Antioch, Theophilus, that it has nothing to do with Jesus, whom he doesn't mention at all in his apology, "Apologia Ad Autolycum". Theophilus says that the reason he and his flock are called Christians is because they are anointed with the oil of God.
LOL
@@br1rocks He did. The association of followers of Christ with Christianity is very early and recorded by non Christian sources as such.
