The Apostle's Creed is a statement of beliefs used by several Christian denominations including Catholicism. The Acts of the Apostles is a book in the New Testament of the Bible. It is normally placed immediately after the four gospel books and follows the early ministry of the apostles after the resurrection of Jesus.
The two events and movements that form the backdrop of the Acts of the Apostles are the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, which is central to Christian faith, and the founding of the early Christian church by the apostles following Jesus' Ascension. These events set the stage for the spread of Christianity and the actions of the apostles in sharing the message of Jesus.
A:According to the author of Acts, the apostles in the book were the same disciples who accompanied Jesus in his mission, so they would have been very aware of details in the life of Jesus. However, Hans Joachim Schoeps (Das Judenchristentum) says that in reality Acts is only a retrospective view of Christian origins written by one party - the winners. He says that Acts cultivates the creation of legends and reshapes persons and events according to its own standards. So it may be true that the characters such as Peter and his fellow apostles knew many specific details about Jesus, but care should be taken in believing everything in Acts of the Apostles. Schoeps says Acts has been believed much too readily.
