Luke 24:46-49

46and he said unto them, Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer, and rise again from the dead the third day;

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

48Ye are witnesses of these things.

49And behold, I send forth the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city, until ye be clothed with power from on high.
