Luke 1:1-4 ▼

1 SINCE many have undertaken to compose a history of the things that are fully believed among us,

2 even as they were delivered to us by those who were, from the beginning, eye-witnesses and ministers of the word;

3 it seemed good to me also, having obtained exact information of all things from the very first, to write them in order for you, most excel lent Theophilus,

4 that you might know the certainty of the things in which you have been instructed.
