"Acts is an Amazing book because literally the early Christians were on trial for their faith and they were literally tried and convicted for their faith! ... Never has a more gripping record been penned. If the amazing events in Acts fail to electrify the imagination and stir the emotions of any serious reader, nothing ever could. Acts is the sequel to the mighty events of the gospels and the gateway to the great teachings of the Epistles. It marks in fact, one of the greatest turning points in history."
