Lukes Purpose

Luke’s Purpose Luke 1:1-4 Luke: “Many people have applied themselves, to the task of compiling an account of the events, that have been fulfilled among us [the shelves]. They used what the original eyewitnesses [gents] - And servants of the word handed down to us. 3 Now, after having investigated everything, carefully from the beginning, I have also [bus], decided to write a carefully ordered [string] - Account for you, most honourable Theophilus. 4 I want you to have confidence in the soundness, of the instruction you have received.” Theorist. If you are the theorist about religion, then prowess. That was Luke 1:1-4, and we all can see, by, That Luke did not mean to own the facts, to greet, But rather, if god is in me, and is my mind’s eye, It decides, not god - then analysis, and no heat. This is how Luke starts his Gospel, Christmas, Which precedes the Christmas story, beauteous, Of how a babe born in Bethlehem without class, Engendered a king in life work and deed fructuous. This Gospel of Luke was written to, clearly, “Theophilus”, who epistemologically means, ‘Loved by god” or “Friend of god”, really, Where this man can speak a high view, teens. But there is the Coptic theory of “Theophilus”, Of why the author says the reader is he, Which calls him a real person, a Jew on earth, Instead of the academic view of concept - key. Also, another view is the Roman Official, dearth, Which would not agree with ancient culture, So to some, Theophilus was by his task, girth, St Paul’s lawyer, Paul’s precept or nomenclature. So I would like to offer another theory, literary, That ancient and prehistoric people used, When writing new and difficult views vinery, Their documents were titled by their fused. So this is an inclusion that we all should make - An implication. That history sits as enjoying phrases, Different phraseology and syntax, to stake, Therefore, using a doctor’s name to entitle, mazes. Fight in ancient and pre-ancient societies, Was different from today, and back Victorian, When you outwitted the monarch using suicides, Death - you could commit suicide as sectarian. This inclusion is that the gospels, all of them, And other textual papyri, other academic works, Upon mute authors scared to wield the pen, Simply enlisted a medical name as the title, Luke’s. I need to say thanks - to the author of Luke, For commencing their gospel by free thought - Explaining how to read their gospel look, Not scary, but using rationality, say and bought.
