In my former book,\xa0Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach\xa02\xa0until the day he was taken up to heaven,\xa0after giving instructions\xa0through the Holy Spirit to the apostles\xa0he had chosen.\xa03\xa0After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them\xa0over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.\xa04\xa0On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command:\xa0\u201cDo not leave Jerusalem, but wait\xa0for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about.\xa05\xa0For John baptized with\xa0water,\xa0but in a few days you will be baptized with\xa0the Holy Spirit.\u201d6\xa0Then they gathered around him and asked him, \u201cLord, are you at this time going to restore\xa0the kingdom to Israel?\u201d 7\xa0He said to them:\xa0\u201cIt is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.\xa08\xa0But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;\xa0and you will be my witnesses\xa0in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria,\xa0and to the ends of the earth.\u201d9\xa0After he said this, he was taken up\xa0before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight. 10\xa0They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white\xa0stood beside them.\xa011\xa0\u201cMen of Galilee,\u201d\xa0they said, \u201cwhy do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back\xa0in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.\u201d Acts 1:1-11 (NIV)

When the day of Pentecost\xa0came, they were all together\xa0in one place.2\xa0Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.\xa03\xa0They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them.\xa04\xa0All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit\xa0and began to speak in other tongues\xa0as the Spirit enabled them. Acts 2:1-4(NIV)

They devoted themselves to the apostles\u2019 teaching\xa0and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread\xa0and to prayer.\xa043\xa0Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles.\xa044\xa0All the believers were together and had everything in common.\xa045\xa0They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need.\xa046\xa0Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts.\xa0They broke bread\xa0in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts,\xa047\xa0praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people.\xa0Acts 2:42-47(NIV)
