In this episode, Rob and Vinnie look at the literary nature of the book of Acts in order to discern Luke's objectives. They note that the stories in Acts parallel the Gospel of Luke. What Jesus does in Luke is what Peter and Paul do in Acts. They also note that Luke seems concerned to affirm that Paul is an apostle alongside Peter and the others. Thus, Luke demonstrates that what Peter does Paul does. Finally, they address the book of Acts and Acts' stress on the beginning of the Kingdom of God in Jesus and what this means for our understanding of the end times.
