The title of this book is taken from Luke 1:1, “Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us.” The gospel is the testimony of eyewitnesses, who attest the certainty of the events of the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. Luke 1:1-4, 1 John 1:1-4. Peter says, “For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses to His Majesty.” 2 Peter 1:16. The gospel rests upon the uniform testimony of unimpeachable witnesses who gave a firsthand account of what they knew to be “infallible proofs.” Acts 1:3. Basically, no guide to religious doctrine can be termed “simple” for doctrine itself is most profound. This does not mean that such an attempt is not worth trying.
