Book 44 Acts

44:001:001 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that
           Jesus began both to do and teach,

44:001:002 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through
           the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom
           he had chosen: 

44:001:003 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many
           infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking
           of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God: 

44:001:004 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that
           they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the
           promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.

44:001:005 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized
           with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

44:001:006 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him,
           saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom
           to Israel?

44:001:007 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.

44:001:008 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come
           upon you:  and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem,
           and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part
           of the earth.

44:001:009 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was
           taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.

44:001:010 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up,
           behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;

44:001:011 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 in like manner as ye have seen him go
           into heaven.

44:001:012 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called
           Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day’s journey.

44:001:013 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room,
           where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew,
           Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of
           Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.

44:001:014 These all continued with one accord in prayer and
           supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus,
           and with his brethren.

44:001:015 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the
           disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about
           an hundred and twenty,)

44:001:016 Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been
           fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake
           before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took
           Jesus.
