Description
The "big picture" of the book of Acts is the demonstration of what it means to be a Holy Spirit empowered witness for the Lord Jesus Christ. Acts 1:1-11 bookmarks two significant events on God's calendar: the Ascension of Jesus into heaven and His glorious future return. Our lives fall between these two events. As we await His coming again, all believers are promised the empowerment of the Spirit for the heralding of the Gospel, even in the face of opposition.
