Acts 1:4-8 - The Holy Spirit Promised

4 And calling them together, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of my Father, which, said he, you have heard from me; 5 for John indeed immersed in water, but you shall be immersed in the Holy Spirit, not many days hence.

6 Therefore, when they came together, they asked him, saying: Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?

7 But he said to them: It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has reserved under his own control. 8 But you shall receive power, after the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be witnesses for me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and to the most distant part of the earth.
