The scripture is actually found at Colossians 4:14 where it says: "Our dear friend Luke, the doctor, and Demas send greetings."(NIV)
A:The ascension of Jesus is in Luke's Gospel, where it says that he rose to heaven on the evening of the day of his resurrection (Luke 24:51). It is also in Acts of the Apostles, where it says he rose to heaven forty days after his resurrection (Acts 1:3,9). Both books were by the same author, traditionally thought to be the apostle Luke, but Acts was written some time after Luke.
Luke chapter 2 verse 21 says he was eight days.
Luke 19 verse 2 says Zacchaeus climbed a sycamore tree to get a better look at Jesus, as he was short .
No, Acts 22:9 and Acts 9:7 do not present a contradiction. In these verses, the accounts of Paul's conversion on the road to Damascus are being recounted from different perspectives, which may lead to slight variations in details. This is common in historical narratives.
A:The author of Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles is the author of the notion that Jesus was taken up bodily to heaven. Luke 24:51 says that Jesus was taken up bodily to heaven on the evening of his resurrection. Acts 1:9, written some time later, says that Jesus was taken bodily to heaven forty days after the resurrection.The other three gospels said nothing of Jesus physically leaving earth and rising up to heaven. However, the 'Long Ending' of Mark (verses 16:9-20), added long after the Gospel was written, was more or less written around Luke's ending, so that verse 16:19 says that he was taken up bodily to heaven, apparently on the evening of his resurrection. (Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8.)
I can't find any verse that says that.
Luke 23:34 verse says as "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do".That is the best scripture when a friend or realtive or anyone in this world was murdered.
The Bible does not specifically mention marijuana or drug use. Christians believe in following the laws of the land and respecting one's body as a temple of the Holy Spirit, which includes avoiding substances that can harm one's health or impair judgment.
Luke 24:18 says that one of them was called Cleopas. There is no direct evidence as to who Luke intended the other to be, but it was probably Peter, since Peter is mentioned at verse 24:12.
One example is Matthew 4:4, which says "But he answered, 'It is written: Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"
Yes - he was a Greek physician.CORRECTION....The writer of the third Gospel is called by Paul "the beloved physician" (Col. 4:14); and, as we learn from Acts, was Paul's frequent companion. He was of Jewish ancestry, but his correct Greek marks him as a Jew of the dispersion. Tradition says he was a Jew of Antioch, as Paul was of Tarsus. Luke also wrote the book of Acts.
This was originally said in Deuteronomy 6:16: Do not test the Lord your God as you did at Massah. (NIV) This is quoted in Luke 4:12, which says: Jesus answered, "It says: 'Do not put the Lord your God to the test.' " (NIV)
