Acts 1:2

1 The first book I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,

2 until the day in which he was received up, after he had given commandment through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.

3 To these he also showed himself alive after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days, and spoke about God`s kingdom.

4 Being assembled together with them, he charged them, "Don`t depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which you heard from me.

5 For John indeed baptized with water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days from now."

7 He said to them, "It isn`t for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within His own authority.
