Reviews

[Eli · Rating 4 out of 5]

Excellent analysis of the purpose of Luke-Acts and the role of historical evidence in bringing about faith in the resurrection. Fuller draws attention to the fact that it is not the growth of the Church, per se, that proves the resurrection happened, but the astonishing mission to the Gentiles.

"A consideration of Luke's argument for the resurrection of Jesus shows that it is just as impossible to deny his resurrection as it is to deny the existence of Julius Caesar."
