====[[Acts]]====
 
The Book of Acts is an account of the early followers of Christ who, obedient to the [[Great Commission]], began to spread the good news of a risen Savior throughout the known world. Two key human figures in the book are Peter and Paul and a clear flow in the book is the spread of the gospel to the Jewish people and then to all other people (Gentiles).
====[[Epistles]]====
