Description: DISCOVERING ACTS The Guideposts Home Bible Study Program Hardback bookCOPYRIGHT © 1985 by GUIDEPOSTS ASSOCIATES, INC. According to the Publisher's Introduction: " To study the book of Acts is to participate in an adventure of faith which began in Jerusalem and ended some thirty years later in Rome, which was the capital of a vast empire that stretched from Britain to Arabia. " " The characters in this drama include provincial governors, Roman centurions and soldiers, kings, common folk, and aristocrats. There is Stephen, the first Christian to die for his faith; an Ethiopian finance officer; James, the Lord's brother and head of the Jerusalem church; Cornelius; Aquila and Priscilla; Silas and Barnabas-an almost endless cast of important characters. But Peter is the main feature in the first part of the story, and Paul is on the center stage during the last part. However, throughout the entire story the central figure is always Jesus, the risen Lord. " " While not written as history, the book of Acts gives us our only record of the beginnings of Christianity-from Jesus' instructions to His disciples between the resurrection and His ascension, to the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost and the founding of God's new order, the Church. From Jerusalem, empowered believers took the Good News of salvation throughout Judea, Samaria, and Galilee-all of Palestine. And from there we trace its rapid-fire movement to Syrian Antioch, Asia Minor, Greece, and finally to Rome.
