JESUS \u200b\u200b'up the sky
By Simon Oren expert in Scripture
Acts of the Apostles - Chapter 1.1 to 14
[1] In my first book I have already discussed, Theophilus, of all that Jesus did and taught from the beginning
[2] until the day when, after giving instructions to the apostles he had chosen through the Holy Spirit, he was taken up into heaven.
[3] he presented himself alive to them after his passion by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking
the kingdom of God [4] While he was at table with them, ordered them not to away from Jerusalem
but to wait for the promise of the Father "that he said, that you heard from me:
[5] John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days' .
[6] So they had come together, they asked, "Lord, this is the time restore the kingdom to Israel?".
[7] But he said: "It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has fixed by his own
[8] but you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and be my witnesses in Jerusalem ,
in all Judea and Samaria and to the ends the earth. "
[9] That said, he was lifted up their eyes and a cloud hid him from their sight.
[10] And as they were gazing into heaven as he went, suddenly two men in white robes stood by them and said
[11] "Men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken from you into heaven,
will come in the same way that you saw him go into heaven. "
[12] Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a sabbath day journey.
[13] entered the city came to floor where they lived. There were Peter and John, James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas,
Bartholomew and Matthew, James son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot and Judas of James.
[14] All these devoted themselves to prayer, together with several women, including Mary, the mother of Jesus and his brothers.
