Luke 1:2-3
1:2 like the accounts
passed on
to us by those who were eyewitnesses and servants of the word
from the beginning.
1:3 So
it seemed good to me as well,
because I have followed
all things carefully from the beginning, to write an orderly account
for you, most excellent Theophilus,
Luke 2:10-11
2:10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid! Listen carefully,
for I proclaim to you good news
that brings great joy to all the people:
2:11 Today
your Savior is born in the city
of David.
He is Christ
the Lord.
Acts 1:1-2

1:2 until the day he was taken up to heaven, after he had given orders by the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen.
