Luke 1:1-4 ▼

1 Inasmuch as many took it in hand to present a history concerning these things which have been fulfilled among us,

2 as those being eyewitnesses and ministers of the Word have delivered unto us;

3 it seemed good to me also, having followed carefully all things from the beginning, to write unto thee consecutively, O most noble Theophilus,

4 in order that thou mayest know the certainty of the words concerning which thou hast been instructed.
