The Acts of the Apostles provides a crucial revelatory and salvation-historical contribution to the canon of Scripture. Without it, God's revelation of His redemptive accomplishment in His Son would be incomplete and the New Testament scriptures would be fragmented and somewhat confusing. The four Gospel accounts record the "Christ event" (Jesus' life, ministry, death, resurrection and ascension) as it secured the kingdom of heaven that Jesus had heralded throughout His life. On the other hand, the Epistles address the Church as it exists in the context of the established and growing kingdom. In that sense, the Gospels proclaim and promise the immediately forthcoming inauguration of Christ's kingdom, while the epistles presume its present existence. Without the book of Acts, the salvation-historical fulfillment announced by the Gospels and presumed by the Epistles would be obscured and left to speculation as to its particulars and outworking. Acts, then, provides the necessary historical and salvation-historical bridge that completes God's revelation of redemption, providing organic unity to the New Testament and binding together the entirety of the Scripture into a cohesive whole.
