Acts 1:3-11 - Jesus Ascends To Heaven
3 to whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion, of which they had many proofs, during the forty days he appear'd to them, and inform'd them about the reign of the Messias:
4 being with them when they were assembled, he order'd they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for what the father had promis'd, which, said he, I mention'd. 5 " for John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the holy ghost, not many days hence."
6 Being therefore in his presence, they asked him, saying, Lord, is this the time when you will restore again the kingdom to Israel?
7 and he said to them, it is not for you, to know the times or the seasons, which the father hath reserv'd in his own disposal. 8 but ye shall receive the influence of the holy spirit, which will descend upon you: and ye shall be witnesses for me, in Jerusalem, in all Judea, and in Samaria, and to the remotest part of the earth.
9 After this discourse, while they beheld, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight. 10 and as they were looking stedfastly toward heaven, as he mounted up, on a sudden, two men appear'd before them robed in white, who said, 11 "ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up to heaven? this same Jesus who is taken up from you into heaven, shall descend in the same manner as ye have seen him ascend thither."
