I agree with Frank. Acts never betrays any knowledge of Paul's letter 
to congregations like Corinth, Philippi, or Thessalonica. Add that 
the Paul of Acts does not use the vocabulary or theology of Paul's 
letters. I find it almost incomprehensible that one would think Acts 
knew Paul's letters, but never referred to them

Peace, Ed Krentz

Frank, see you in Bonn..
