Plot
Luke tells the story here. Jesus goes to heaven after 40 days, and Judas was replaced after some lots. The holy spirit comes to Jerusalem, and they begin to tell the gospel. After being arrested several times, the apostles had faced trouble with Saul, and the gospel spreads around Judea and Sameria. After Saul converts to the faith, he goes out, teaching about Jesus as he went. He changed his name to Paul, and he went to many places in the Roman world, and finally, Rome.
