Key markers which stand out as dominant characteristics in Luke's literary structure, are identified and their contribution to the Missionary Church in Acts briefly discussed. These key markers are: the centrality of the resurrection and its associated characteristic of justice; the importance of faithfulness to the scriptures in the light of the resurrection; the setting of people free from that which binds them; their reintegration as whole people into the society and the commission to being witnesses of Jesus' ministry.}, pages = {16--29}, number = {0}, journaltitle = {Scriptura: Journal for Biblical, Theological and Contextual Hermeneutics}, author = {Germiquet, Eddie}, urldate = {2020-06-29}, date = {2010}, note = {Free}, keywords = {Followers of the Way, Journey Narrative, Justice, Liberty, Luke, Resurrection, Stand up, Witnesses}, }
