Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.
Luke tells us why he has spent so much time working on his version of Jesus' life and ministry: 'so that you may know with certainty the things you have been taught.' Others had, no doubt, tried to tell their own version of Jesus' story, but some of them tried to tell their own story. In this introduction there is a veiled warning: do not be led astray by false teaching. Luke is telling his readers to beware, to make sure they really know Jesus. This is a warning we should follow as well. There are false prophets in the world; there are those who would lead us astray. We need to make sure we are following Jesus. The best way to do that is continue to read the Scriptures for ourselves. We need to keep looking at Jesus through the words that have been written for us and not be led astray by others. God bless you.
Pastor Josh
