mz bratti,
we all make HUGE conclusions from what the scriptures are SILENT on ALL THE TIME.
I am not particularly up on the specifics of the pointed exchange between O.M. and the rest of the field but....I thought I would post this.
Using your fun example surrounding diner at the Bratti house:
Jesus had purple hair!
....
Show me in the bible where is says he doesn't!
1. It is up to the one who makes the statement to back up their claims.
2. If something is not stated in the Bible, it cannot be made into doctrine. In my opinion, it shouldn't be stated as fact.
Luke probably did pray for folks. I would imagine most, if not all of the disciples did. However, he was also a physician. How do you reconcile the two? Did he cease being a physician? I find it interesting that Luke is referred to as the "Beloved physician", almost as if it was his practice that he was endeared for.

Then why don't you prove where he gave medication?

here are some really simple facts to consider. We have historical evidence as to what it meant to be a doctor in first centruy palistine. we know Luke was a doctor.

Yes, he was a doctor, but none of you have shown any evidence that he gave medications to the sick.

But, OM, you haven't shown any evidence that he did NOT.

There are no scriptural references to show that Luke did, so that must mean he didn't.
No, his simple title indicates he did.
It's not logical to say he didn't.

*sigh*
There are no scriptural references to show that Luke DIDN'T, so I could say with equal certainty that he DID.

Just like we know that Luke was a physician, Matthew was an Apostle. The Apostles Matthew and Peter received the same revelation of the Oneness of Jesus because Luke testified that Jesus opened up their understanding of the Scriptures. As they were of one mind and one accord, we assume they conducted themselves in the same manner regarding baptism.
Whether Luke dispensed medicine as a physician during the time of the Book of Acts, we can see:

Along these same lines of logic, we can assume Matthew never baptized anyone in the Name of Jesus:
There are no scriptural references to show that Matthew baptized in The Name of Jesus, so that must mean he didn't.
