As the Gospel of Luke begins, its author declares his intent to compile “an orderly account” of Jesus’ life and ministry so that anyone who reads it “may have certainty concerning the things you have been taught.” When we open its pages, this is exactly what we find. Tracing Jesus’ life from His nativity and ministry to His death, resurrection, and ascension, Luke presents us with a portrait of a perfect, divine Savior in whom we can believe fully and securely.
In volume three of this series, Alistair Begg walks us through the opening days of Christ’s ministry, noting the explicit responses He provoked from people who either believed Him fully or rejected Him completely. Jesus’ early teachings and public acts focused on a wide range of themes—yet through it all, we catch glimpses of the Son of Man as He continued the journey that would lead Him to Calvary.
