Detalles de la respuesta
The book of Acts of the Apostles contains the following three topics: 1. How the early church started, including the ascension of Jesus and the appointment of Matthias to replace Judas as an apostle. 2. The things the Holy Spirit helped the Apostles to do in their lifetime, including the preaching of the gospel, the healing of the sick, and the performing of miracles. 3. The stories of those who came to faith in Jesus, as well as some who rejected him, such as the Jewish religious leaders. Therefore, "the story of Jesus' birth," is not included in the book of Acts of the Apostles. The book primarily focuses on the actions of the apostles after Jesus' ascension into heaven and the establishment of the early Christian church.
