Acts 1:1-5

¹The former treatise I made, O Theophilus, concerning all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,

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

³to whom he also showed himself alive after his passion by many proofs, appearing unto them by the space of forty days, and speaking the things concerning the kingdom of God:

⁴and, being assembled together with them, he charged them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, said he, ye heard from me:

⁵for John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days hence.
