No longer can Acts be seen as a simple apologia that articulates Christianity's harmlessness vis-a-vis Rome. Rather, in its attempt to form communities that witness to God's apocalypse author Kavin Rowe argues, Luke's second volume is a highly charged and theologically sophisticated political document.
