Summary: | Graham Twelftree already has a well-deserved reputation as a leading New Testament scholar from the charismatic wing of the Christian church. This fresh perspective produces an innovative exposition of Luke’s ecclesiology, identifying nuances that others of us may miss or underplay. The text is clearly and simply written; the final chapter provides an admirable summary of the main points. There is a 25-page classified bibliography, but regrettably no references to other scholars in the body of the book, thus concealing who may be the author’s sources and sparring partners at any point., Luke places the church’s origin not in Pentecost but earlier in the ministry of Jesus and the recreation of his group of followers after the resurrection. |
