A hint on the author of the Acts
#9
Hi IPO,

There is no "solid proof". It has been passed down from the earliest times and has never been disputed with any facts. There is never a hint in any ancient Church writter that it was not Luke, the companion of the Apostle Paul, who wrote both the Gospel and Acts.

And to be brutally honest, there is very little solid proof, if at all that anyone named as writting any books of the Bible actually wrote them themselves. We go on what we are told, which has been passed down from the 1st generations.

If one day (I hope so) that the Original letters of The Apostle Paul are found, then we can look and see, that the Apostle Paul signed in his own hand, at the end of some of them...this he said he did. This meaning that his scribe wrote down what he was dictating, but in that place he took the page and wrote upon it himself....It would be fantastic to find just one of these Autographs...But we must settle with the copies, and trust that God has presurved His Holy Word through the ages. Which I believe He has, in the Aramaic Eastern Peshitta Manuscripts. The Khabouris and Mingana being great examples.

Again, there is no possible way to prove it beyond any doubt. But its what is said there that really matters, no matter whom God chose to write it down.

Shlama,
Chuck
