Book of Acts: Transitions in Inspired History
In this volume, Norman W. Mathers provides a careful exposition of the Book of Acts, presenting it as the pivotal bridge between the Old Testament and the New Testament. Acts is more than a chronicle of the apostles; it is the inspired history of the church’s birth and the transition from Judaism to Christianity, from Law to grace, and from the anticipation of an earthly kingdom to the formation of the universal church.
Mathers shows how Acts illuminates the movement from the ministry of Christ in the Gospels to the theology of the epistles, tracing how the early apostles gathered Old Testament believers into the new order established at Pentecost. Special attention is given to the historical background of the epistles, the role of Peter and Paul, the significance of signs and wonders, and the unfolding of God’s plan from the death of Christ to the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70.
With clear analysis, translation from the Greek text, and theological insight, this book serves both as a historical commentary and a guide to understanding the foundations of the Christian church. Readers will find here a resource for grasping the dynamic transitions of the early church age and the inspired history that shaped Christian doctrine and practice. Dr. Mathers is Assistant Professor for Liberty University Online, College of Arts and Science, Lynchburg, Virginia. He teaches Philosophy/Christian Evidence.
