Stronstad\'s bold proposal has already borne much fruit for Pentecostal Luke-Acts scholarship and beyond.
Stronstad traces this theme in the infancy narratives, the life of Jesus, the company of Spirit-baptized believers, and the acts of the Charismatic prophets (Stephen, Philip, Barnabas, Agabus, Peter, and Paul).
