          The Gospel of St. Luke begins with the reason he is writing, explaining himself in this way:

“Inasmuch as many have undertaken to

 compile a narrative of the things that

 have been accomplished

 among us, just as

 those who have  from the beginning

 were eyewitnesses and ministers

 of the word have delivered them to us,

it seemed good to me also, to me also,

 having followed all things closely for some

time past,

to write an orderly account

for you.”

St. Luke l,l-3

          Quite a fine statement, “an orderly account’, for us who came years later to have, read, study, and make our own, almost as if we had been thee. And that is why this Gospel was written, so we can cherish it and know that Jesus Christ lived, died, and rose again for our salvation. So study and make it truly your own.
