Luke 1:1-4
1 Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a narrative of those things which have been fulfilled among us, 2 just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word delivered them to us, 3 it seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you an orderly account, most excellent Theophilus, 4 that you may know the certainty of those things in which you were instructed.
This is one reason that Mark spoke of the Lord's work being confirmed in the apostles, so that their confirming testimony validated the words and witness they gave to us. So Luke wrote what Jesus said and did as a credible and chosen eyewitness. We do well to heed God's words to us through these who penned the New Testament. Then we can be certain what we are taught matches what God says.
