Acts 1:3-11 - Jesus Ascends To Heaven

³ to whom also he showed himself alive, after his passion, by many tokens; appearing unto them forty days, and speaking of the kingdom of God;

⁴ and gathered them together, and commanded them, that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but to "Wait for the promise of the father, whereof ye have heard of me. ⁵ For John baptised with water but ye shall be baptised with the holy ghost, and that within this few days."

⁶ When they were come together, they asked of him, saying, "Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?"

⁷ And he said unto them, "It is not for you to know the times, or the seasons which the father hath put in his own power: ⁸ but ye shall receive power of the holy ghost which shall come on you. And ye shall be witnesses unto me in Jerusalem, and in all Jewry, and in Samaria, and even unto the world's end."

⁹ And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up: and a cloud received him up out of their sight. ¹⁰ And while they looked steadfastly up to heaven, as he went; behold, two men stood by them in white apparel, ¹¹ which also said, "Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come, even as ye have seen him go into heaven."
