Luke 24:49

45Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the Scriptures.

46He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,

47and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

48You are witnesses of these things.

49Behold, I send out the promise of my Father on you. But wait in the city of Jerusalem until you are clothed with power from on high.”

50He led them out as far as Bethany, and he lifted up his hands and blessed them.

51While he blessed them, he withdrew from them and was carried up into heaven.

52They worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

53and were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
