Luke 24:45-49

MLV(i) 45 Then he opened their mind to understand the Scriptures.


46 And he said to them, Thus it has been written, that it was essential for the Christ to suffer and to rise up from the dead in the third day; 47 and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem. 48 Now you are witnesses of these things. 49 And behold, I am sending the promise of my Father upon you, but you stick-around in the city of Jerusalem, until you should be clothed with power from on high.
