What does the Bible say about the purpose of Luke's Gospel?

Answered in 1 source

Luke's Gospel aims to provide certainty regarding the life and teachings of Jesus Christ.

In his Gospel, Luke explicitly states that his aim is to ensure Theophilus knows the certainty of the things he has been instructed about Jesus. This demonstrates Luke's commitment to presenting an accurate and orderly account of the life and ministry of Christ, in contrast to relying on unwritten traditions or oral accounts that may become distorted over time. The emphasis is on the factual nature of the Gospel, as a narrative based on the eye-witness testimonies of those who were directly involved in the events surrounding Christ's life.
