Luke’s Gospel was written specifically to the high official Theophilus, to make sure that there was a precise account of Jesus’ ministry and teachings (<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; font-style: italic; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>Luke 1:1-4 & Acts 1:1-4<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>). However, Luke wrote in a way that was sure to let Theophilus know and understand that Jesus’ journey and teachings were a movement that would transcend throughout time and be a worldwide following, and not only for the Jewish people. Luke is adamant about proclaiming that Jesus is the “Savior of the World” and rarely refers to Him as the Messiah. The Gospel of Luke doesn’t speak much of the Jewish roots of Jesus, he omits the great teaching moments of Jesus, such as: The Sermon on the Mount (<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; font-style: italic; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>Matt. 5:21-48<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>), the instruction for the Apostles to not preach to Samaritans and Gentiles (<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; font-style: italic; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>Matt. 10:5<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>), and the words of condemnation against the Pharisees and scribes (<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; font-style: italic; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>Matt. 23<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>). However, only the Gospel of Luke recounts Jesus’ dedication, circumcision (<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; font-style: italic; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>vs. 2:21-24<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>), His visit to the Synagogue in His youth (<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; font-style: italic; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>vs.<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”> <span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; font-style: italic; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>2:41-52<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>), and the prayer life of Jesus (<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; font-style: italic; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>vs. 3:21; 5:16; 6:12; 9:18 & 9:29;11:1; 11:5-10; 23:34 & 23:46<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>). The Book of Luke also focuses on showing the Love, Sympathy, Kindness, and Equality of Jesus towards ALL people, no matter what their station in life was, especially the poor, sick, downtrodden, slaves, women, and all sinners (<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; font-style: italic; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>v. 24:47<span class=”TextRun SCXW228782585 BCX8″ lang=”EN-US” style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: none !important; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif;” xml:lang=”EN-US” data-contrast=”auto”>). I really enjoyed reading the Book of Luke, it showed me Jesus in the light of the most unprejudiced person to ever live. If only the whole world could truly follow His amazing example!<span class=”EOP SCXW228782585 BCX8″ style=”margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 23.7417px; font-family: Lato, Lato_EmbeddedFont, Lato_MSFontService, sans-serif;” data-ccp-props=”{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}”>
