A Year in Luke/ActsНамуна

Another key part of Luke’s introduction is the Person of the Trinity who is going to play a leading role in the story: the Holy Spirit. The apostles are instructed to wait in Jerusalem for the Holy Spirit. Why Jerusalem? Because this has been the city that has housed the Presence of God in the Temple for so many centuries. From this place, a New Phase in God’s relationship with Humanity, launched by Jesus, is going to begin.
“The transition from Jesus to his movement, a transition on which the two volumes pivot, underlines the absolute necessity of empowerment for mission. Just as Jesus did not begin his public ministry before receiving the Spirit (Luke 3:22-23, 4:18, Acts 10:38), his disciples must depend on God’s empowerment and should not even attempt their mission without it" (Craig Keener, p103, Acts).
