  • The Gospel According to Luke
    LUKE THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO LUKE This title has been associated with the third Gospel as long as it has been known. Its author was believed to be Luke, the first-century Christian physician who was a traveling companion of Paul. KEY TEXT: 19:10 “For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.” KEY TERM: “SAVIOR” The saving activity of Jesus, both in His ministry and in His death, is the focus of this book. Because His mission was to save others, He did not save Himself (23:35). ONE-SENTENCE SUMMARY Jesus not only lived and ministered as the perfect human, but He also died and rose to new life as the Savior for sinners. The old Roman road from Jerusalem to Jericho was the setting for Jesus’ parable of the Good Samaritan (10:25–37). Those who heard Jesus knew well the hazards of traveling this route. 332 LUKE AUTHOR AND DATE OF WRITING Luke, Perhaps Around AD 60–61 The book is anonymous, but early Christian tradition uniformly affirmed that Luke composed this Gospel as well as Acts. See Author and Date of Writing for ACTS for reasons supporting Luke’s authorship of Acts. The dedications to Theophilus, the similar Greek style and vocabulary, and special shared emphases of the books (such as prayer and joy) all point to common authorship. Luke was a secondary figure in the book of Acts, known not by name but by his use of the pronouns “we” and “us” when he was present during the actions he was describing.

History and Survey of Missions ICST 355 Dr. Don Fanning There is no more dramatic history than how the Church, against all odds, could exist, much less expand worldwide, over the past 2000 years. This study seeks to honor and discover the significant contributions of the men and women, not unlike ourselves, yet in different circumstances, who made an impact in their generation. It can be said of them like David, who “served his own generation by the will of God…” (Acts 13:36). Apostolic History AD 33- 100 Page | 2 1 Apostolic History of the Early Church A.D. 33-100 Every science and philosophy attempts to learn from the past. Much of the study of the past becomes difficult, primarily because no living witness was there. Often the tendency is to read into the past our present circumstances in order to make them relevant. A classic illustration of this is Leonardo da Vinci’s 1498 painting of the Last Supper, in which the twelve Apostles and Jesus are seated on chairs behind a table served with plates and silverware.

The study shows that had Boudicca not changed her winning strategy in one key battle, she could have forced the Roman Empire to withdraw their presence from Britannia, at least until it was prudent to invade again. This paper analyzes the few extant historical accounts available on Boudicca, namely those of the Roman historians Tacitus and Cassius Dio, to explore the effectiveness of tactics on both sides of the rebellion.

    We know about the Roman invasion of Britain from the Roman perspective, but what about the Britons…? What did they think, and what did they do about the Romans taking over their lands? This week’s History lesson is all about the Briton’s response to the Roman invasion, and how it then became part of the empire for 300 years... As we know, the Roman Empire launched a Monday’s successful invasion of Britain in AD 43 under comprehension Emperor Claudius (we also know that earlier taught you that Roman leaders - such as Julius Caesar - failed to Prasutagus was do this). Consequently, in AD 43 the Romans King of the Iceni were here to stay. One reason for Claudius’ tribe and success was that his armies didn’t try and Boudicca’s defeat every British tribe. Instead, tribal husband. The leaders were invited to make their kingdoms Iceni remained a “client-states” of Rome. This basically meant client state of that as long as these leaders lived, and followed Rome up until the Rome’s orders when asked, they could keep some death of level of power within the Roman Empire. Several Prasutagus in leaders agreed to this, including Prasutagus... around A.D. 60. Tacitus (full name, Publius Gaius Cornelius Tacitus, ca. 56 – ca. 117 CE) was a Roman Senator and an important historian of the Roman Empire. He wrote an account of the Iceni Queen Boudicca's revolt against Rome in 60-61 AD and described her like so:“In stature she was very tall, in appearance most terrifying, in the glance of her eye most fierce, and her voice was harsh; a great mass of the tawniest hair fell to her hips; around her neck was a large golden necklace; and she wore a tunic of divers colours over which a thick mantle was fastened with a brooch.” Although you will have learnt Boudicca’s story from your comprehension work, the following link will give you a few more details.

  • Richard Hingley, Londinium: a Biography
    Richard Hingley, Londinium: A Biography. Roman London from its Origins to the Fifth Century. London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2018. Pp. xv + 383; 75 illustrations. ISBN: 9781350047297. £27.00. Hingley’s Londinium: A Biography admirably fulfills the need for a synthesis of recent archaeological evidence and scholarship on Roman London. This biography transmits an account of Londinium from its origins through the fifth century AD. Along the way, Hingley considers the vicissitudes of the fortune of the town, the composition of its population, and its relationship with the province and the empire, adding personality to the life of Londinium. He accomplishes this analysis through contextualizing material evidence and emphasizing Londinium as a lived environment. His narrative of continuity and change challenges traditional assumptions concerning the rise and fall of Londinium and provides a guidebook for further study. Two main themes serve as guiding principles for the work: space and people. Hingley aims “to assess Roman London in the context of the province and the empire” by looking at space and the definition of place through boundaries, waterscapes, and landscapes, as well as the people occupying that space, including their statuses and lifestyles (2). Hingley notes, “In looking at how power, status, gender and identity are reflected through the materiality of the evolving urban landscape, the ritual and religious context in which these activities occurred is also addressed” (2–3). Each chapter engages with these themes and concludes with a summary and areas for future inquiry. The chapters are divided chronologically into periods of destruction and development. Chapter One grapples with the origins of the settlement and continuity as well as change from the Iron Age into the Roman period.

  • Biblical Illustrator Timeline of the Bible
    Printing the Time Line You have several options, but much depends upon the capabilities of your printer and the purpose for which you are printing the time line. Option 1. Print to scale. Print each page on a 11x17 sheet to scale. Most of the text can be read at this scale with the exception of some of the photo captions. Option 2. Print to size. Print each page using the tiling option on your printer (see the owner’s manual of yoru printer to determine if and how to set your printer for tiling). Using the Tile option means multiple pages will be printed as tiles, and you piece the different pages together (tiles) to create the whole. Many printers will allow you to determine the overlap between each tile. If your printer allows for you to set the overlap, we suggest an inch to 2 inch of overlap if possible (makes it easier to piece text together at natural breaks). Option 3. Use a local printer to print the file. Permission is granted for you to secure the services of a local printer to generate a Biblical Illustrator Old and New Testament Time Line for use in your ministry setting with the understanding that the LifeWay.com tagline remains visible on the finished product(s).
