Is Luke an Exponent of "Early Protestantism"? Church Order in the Lukan Writings

Is Luke an Exponent of "Early Protestantism"? Church Order in the Lukan Writings

  • Semi-Technical
  • Kevin Giles

How does Luke represent Christian leadership in the early church? Giles finds it inappropriate to regard the ecclesiology of Luke as "early catholic." He emphasizes that those would lead in the Christian community are not rulers but servants. He discusses Luke's understanding of apostleship, the "elders," prophets, evangelists, and teachers.

Weeping and praying do well together; tears put life into prayers...and prayers help to wipe away tears. Matthew Henry
