The following are the contents of your syllabus.Please
read each one carefully and try to remember each incident because the
qauestions are based on them
The birth of the early church as portrayed in the Acts of the Apostles,
chapters 1–21, verse 15
In addition to studying the prescribed chapters of Acts in detail –
i.e. chapters 1 to 21, verse 15 –
candidates should be encouraged to read the rest of the Acts, as this
will help them to understand the
structure and purpose of the book. Questions, however, will only be set
on material in the prescribed
chapters. Candidates will be expected to have made a study of the following:
• Authorship – connection between Luke’s Gospel and
the Acts of the Apostles
• Baptism of Jews and Gentiles (including the Ethiopian, Cornelius,
Samaritans, those at Syrian
Antioch, converts on Paul’s journeys)
• Holy Spirit – Pentecost, Cornelius, Paul’s journeys
• Persecution of the Church – in Jerusalem, the dispersion,
Paul’s journeys
• Gentile admission – Council of Jerusalem – a church
independent from Judaism – resulting problems
• Preaching and speeches of Peter, Stephen, Paul and James
• Missionary journeys of Paul and Barnabas – attitude of the
Roman authorities, Jews and pagans to
the church
• Ministry in the church – apostles, deacons, elders
• Prophets.
