{"product_id":"preaching-through-luke-james-c-goodloe-iv-9781498268295","title":"Preaching Through Luke: The Gospel as Catechism","description":"Luke wrote this Gospel so \"that you [Theophilus] may have certainty concerning the things you have been taught [i.e., catechesis]\" (1:4). It proceeds with a barrage of questions. The first comes from Zechariah: \"How shall I know?\" (1:18). This is a question of knowledge. The angel Gabriel answers that we shall know by the word of God (1:19). The second comes from Mary: \"How will this be?\" (1:34). This is a question of agency, of how the Son of God can become human. Gabriel answers that it will be by the power of God (1:35). The third comes from Elizabeth: \"Why me?\" (1:43). Why should the gospel of Jesus Christ come to her? Mary answers that it has to do with God's choice, election, mercy, and salvation (1:47-55). The fourth has to do with John: \"What then will this child be?\" (1:66). Zechariah answers that he will be a prophet (1:76-79). John is not the Christ, but he will go before the Christ. Thus begins the catechism according to Luke, a series of questions in order that we may have certainty concerning the things we have been taught.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James C.
