Luke 1:1-4 - The Preface To Luke's Gospel
1 Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to arrange in order a narration about the deeds that have been brought to fullness among us, 2 just as they delivered them to us, who became from the beginning eyewitnesses and servants of the word, 3 it occurred to me also, having followed closely from the beginning all things accurately, to write to thee in order, eminent Theophilus, 4 so that thou might know the certainty of the declarations about which thou were instructed.
