plant the first Christian Church in
Europe. He shared with Paul the
honor due to the pioneers who risked
their lives to establish the Christian
faith firmly in the Roman empire.
When all others deserted the aged
Paul and left him to suffer as prisoner
in the Mammertine prison, Luke re-
manned faithful.
He gave to the world the knowl-
edge that we have of the struggle
that the Church had to establish it,
self in the heart of Europe. He gave
US in his history a record of the
achievements of Peter, Paul and
John as agents of the Lord Jesus.
through whom the Risen Christ con-
tinued to do the works that He
started in His days in the flesh.
While he made an effort to efface
himself in narrating the story of
Jesus and His Church the figure and
personality of the unnamed beloved
physician appears between the lines
so that we come to see in him an
upright and devoted man, whose
friendship with Paul proved a bless
ing to the apostle in advancing the
kingdom of God. He was a beloved
and trusted helper and friend, guard
ing his health and strengthening him
in his work of extending the king
dom of God among all nations
