II. THE PURPOSE OF THE BOOK
1. To provide a historic account of the spread of the gospel throughout
the then-known world.
2. To demonstrate to all future believers:
(1) The manner in which-the Lord of the harvest wants to carry on
from heaven the work which he had begun on earth.
(2) The power by means of which this work is to be accomplished;
namely, that of the Holy Spirit.
3. To account for God's severity with the Jews who were the bitter and
implacable enemies of the gospel.
4. To vindicate God for his setting aside of the Jewish nation in favour
of the acceptance of the Gentiles.
III. THE MESSAGE OF THE BOOK

2. The instrument's dependence upon the Holy Spirit.

instruments.
4. The exercise of the power of divine providence in the extension of
God's kingdom.
5. The certain triumph of the Church by honouring the Lordship of Christ
through:
