Luke 1:1–4. Luke is the only one of the four Gospel writers to include a ‘Prologue’ of this nature to his work. And it’s really rather revealing as it offers a unique insight into his process as an author. There is a strong emphasis on the power and vitality of the word of God throughout these volumes – it will always triumph over every opposition it encounters.


We consider a number of significant themes which permeate the Gospel, and which must surely have been central to his purposes in writing. These include:


  • The arrival of salvation as a fulfilment of the promises of God.
  • The universality of the Gospel – inclusion of the marginalised.
  • Hints of a new community of believers – developed much further in Volume Two.
  • The inclusion of Gentiles .. developed much more fully again in Acts.
  • The plan and purposes of God.


The very existence of these volumes bears witness to the mission of God. Not only is the message profoundly missional, but the means by which the message has been written and made known to us today is itself a crucial part of the working out of mission of God.
