Prologue

1 The former account I made, O aTheophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,  
2 auntil the day in which1 He was taken up, after He through the Holy Spirit bhad given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen,  
3 ato whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many1 infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.  

The Holy Spirit Promised

4 aAnd being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, “which,” He said, “you have bheard from Me;  
5 afor John truly baptized with water, bbut you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”  
6 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?”

Acts 1:1-12

Forty days had passed and the resurrected Christ had been right there before them proclaiming the Kingdom of God and all that He fulfilled in the law and the prophets! But they still did not get it. Their hearts may have burned when He was in front of them, but they still were not fully grasping things.

They merely saw Him as the leader of a physical revolution that fell far short of what the Father and Son actually had in mind—the real change God wanted was to turn the whole world upside down (Acts 17:6).

Excerpted from 'Being Seen of Them Forty Days'

Acts 1:1-8

This was the case for the disciples when Christ told them, "you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now, and you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you." So we cannot wholly recognize and understand how to flawlessly apply God's spiritual standards until we have the mind of Christ indwelling us permanently, and God has revealed them to us through His Spirit, and no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.
