Is Luke-Acts Accurate AT ALL?

Today, we will debunk some popular claims about the historical accuracy of the Book of Acts. Strap in because this will be a wild ride through this well-known biblical text's historical and theological discrepancies.

First, let's tackle the claim that Luke's narrative in Acts is historically reliable—spoiler alert: it's not. We'll start with how Acts portrays the theology of Paul, particularly in the curious case of Timothy's circumcision. Acts suggest Timothy underwent circumcision as part of becoming a Jew; however, Paul's letters identify Timothy as always having been a Gentile, negating any need for such an act. This contradiction is just the tip of the iceberg.

Moreover, we'll explore how Acts borrows heavily from other literary sources, including Homer's epics and Old Testament stories like those found in the Books of Ezekiel and First and Second Kings. These fabrications raise serious questions about the 'historical' claims made by Acts.
