5 for John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now ."

6 So when they had come together, they were asking Him, saying, "Lord , is it at this time You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?"

7 He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or epochs which the Father has fixed by His own authority;

8 but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth."
