Book of Acts Group

Well, crud, I just remembered that I'm the designated post-er for our group. 3 things to know about the book of Acts:
1. The word “Christians” first appears in Acts 11:26, and the word was used to distinguish their (Christian) beliefs from other forms of Judaism

2. Frye's idea of that the bible follows both a pattern of imagery and narrative, specifically with types and antitypes, but also with a continuation of ideas such as the "out-of-Egypt-bring-God".

3. Paul and Barnabus state they are set free from sin through a belief in Jesus, not the law of Moses (13:38) – states the definitive difference between Judaism and Christianity
