The Acts of the Apostles, usually referred to as Acts, is a historical book of the New Testament written by Luke. It picks up where his gospel leaves off and is addressed to Theophilus just as his gospel was. Acts gives us a picture of what the Christian church looked like in the days immediately after Jesus’ death and resurrection. Let’s see how much you know about it.
