Alan J. Thompson is lecturer in New Testament at Sydney Missionary and Bible College, Croydon, New South Wales, Australia. He is the author of One Lord, One People: The Unity of the Church in Acts in Its Literary Setting.
"No one should teach or preach from the Acts of the Apostles again
without first reading this book."
*Douglas S. Huffman, Journal of the Evangelical Theological
Society, Spring 2013*
"This is a very helpful book which I have read with great
appreciation. Thompson provides exactly what he sets out to do: a
clear framework for reading Acts which takes careful account of
many major themes and issues, and a framework which equips his
readers to explore further themselves."
*Steve Walton, Evangelical Quarterly, 86.2 (2014)*
"We can be grateful to Thompson for a profound, convincing, and
delightful work on the theology of Acts. It is a much needed work,
for there are few theologies of Acts written, and I can't think of
one that is more accessible and faithful."
*Thomas R. Schreiner, Themelios, November 2011, 36.3*
"This book will help readers further appreciate the organic and
progressive nature of revelation and understand the narrative flow
and canonical function of the book of Acts. The connections made
with previous revelation . . . are very illuminating and will
stimulate much thought whether one agrees or disagrees with
Thompson's conclusions. I recommend the book highly."
*Richard C. Barcellos, Reformed Baptist Theological Review, V111:
1, Spring 2011*
". . . an accessible, lucidly written, biblically faithful
treatment of the theology of Acts. . . . Thompson establishes a
unifying theological framework for Acts and clearly ties each
chapter into this framework. . . . This is perhaps the most
accessible book-length treatment of the theology of Acts, relevant
to a broad academic and church readership."
*Brian J. Tabb, Bulletin for Biblical Research, 23.1, 2013*
"My favorite book of 2012–2013."
*James M. Hamilton, Towers, Summer Reading Issue, June-July
2013*
". . . a first-class discussion and explanation of the theology of
the Acts that is thoroughly biblical, abreast of the latest
scholarship and written in a way that is accessible to those who
teach and preach the Bible."
*Greg Goswell, New Life, 1 December 2011*
