Luke 24:44-49

44Then he said to them, “These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you. I told you that everything written about me in Moses’ Teachings, the Prophets, and the Psalms had to come true.”

45Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.

46He said to them, “Scripture says that the Messiah would suffer and that he would come back to life on the third day.

47Scripture also says that by the authority of Jesus people would be told to turn to God and change the way they think and act so that their sins will be forgiven. This would be told to people from all nations, beginning in the city of Jerusalem.

48You are witnesses to these things.

49“I’m sending you what my Father promised. Wait here in the city until you receive power from heaven.”
