THE ASCENSION DAY
The Acts 1:1-11
The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus
began both to do and teach,
2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through
the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen
3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many
infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things
pertaining to the kingdom of God
4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that
they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father,
which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized
with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him,
saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel ?
7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or
the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come
upon you and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem ,
and in all Judaea, and in Samaria ,
and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was
taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up,
behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee ,
why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you
into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

Mark 16:14-20
Afterward he appeared unto the eleven
as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of
heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into
all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized
shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them
that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new
tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and
if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on
the sick, and they shall recover.
19 So then after the Lord had spoken
unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20 And they went forth, and preached
every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs
following. Amen.
