Acts 1:4
"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."
Beyond a doubt Jesus won an immortality of influence for his effect upon the world and the life of men cannot die. Above all, there is an immortality of presence and of power. Jesus not only left an immortal name and influence; he is still alive and still active. He is not the one who was; he is the one who is. The Church continued where Jesus had left off at his death and still continues today.
Let us remember one important thing. The apostles were enjoined to wait on the coming of the Spirit. We would gain more power and courage and peace if we learned to wait. In the business of life we need to learn to be still. "But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint,
(Is.40:31).
Amen!
