Luke

“Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas send you greetings.”

“Many have undertaken to compose an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us,”

“In my first book, O Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach,”

“until the day He was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles He had chosen.”

“As soon as Paul had seen the vision, we got ready to leave for Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.”

“These men went on ahead and waited for us in Troas.”

“And after the Feast of Unleavened Bread, we sailed from Philippi, and five days later we rejoined them in Troas, where we stayed seven days.”

“After we had torn ourselves away from them, we sailed directly to Cos, and the next day on to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.”
