In this episode, we start our study of the Book of Acts. Specifically, we cover chapter 1, verses 1-11. Acts is written by Dr. Luke. It was written about 63. Acts covers a period of approximately 30 years. In Acts we see the prominence of the Holy Spirit. In verses 1-11, we are told that during the forty days after Jesus' resurrection from the dead, He appeared to the apostles from time to time, and He proved to them in many ways that He was actually alive. And He talked to them about the Kingdom of God. Also, during this time, Jesus instructed His followers to stay in Jerusalem until the promised gift of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit came on and in them. Jesus explained after the Holy Spirit came upon them, they would be His witnesses starting in Jerusalem, then throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. Finally, we see in these verses; after giving His instruction to stay in Jerusalem, Jesus ascends back into heaven. While His followers are watching Jesus physically ascends into the sky, two angels appear to them, and tell them Jesus will return from heaven in the same way they saw Him go! Yes, Jesus is coming back to this Earth one day!
