Acts 1:4-9 (NKJV)
4 And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from
Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, “which,” He said, “you have heard
from Me; 5 for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy
Spirit not many days from now.” 6 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked
Him, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” 7 And He said to
them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own
authority. 8 But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and
you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end
of the earth.”
9 Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a
cloud received Him out of their sight.
