Confidence matters! Being sure of the ground on which we stand not only banishes insecurity but also fuels courage. Luke tells us that his aim in writing his gospel is that we have certainty. To achieve this aim, Luke explains the way that he has gone about collecting evidence for his gospel.
No other gospel
Luke 1:1-4
Dedication to Theophilus
Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile a narrative of the things that have been accomplished among us, 2 just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word have delivered them to us, 3 it seemed good to me also, having followed all things closely for some time past, to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, 4 that you may have certainty concerning the things you have been taught.
