A hint on the author of the Acts

[Alan G77]

Shlama (hello) PM Saunders and
welcome to the forum.
English is my second language and sometimes I may sound weird...lol.
The word "theophilos" can be either name or "the one who loves God" and it
is hard to tell since first manuscripts did not have capital letters or separations between words.
The word is Greek but it may be a well adopted expression among other nations as well.

Personally, I am tired from opinions and theories just like we were fed with opinions
that NT was written in Greek for some forces wanted to impose this opinion but since this
opinion (theory) did not have a solid base but a fake one, so this theory just collapsed.

So, the theory that Luke wrote the Acts is just an opinion.

So far, I do not see a proof that Luke was author of Acts but the fact that interests is
that the author was traveling with Paul. And this is solid point to start with.

No brother, the theory is actually Church tradition and not an opinion. All the orthodox churches affirm that Luke wrote both volumes attributed to him.

You are entitled to your opinion but I would rather put my trust in the church.
