Ac. 1:1-3
In the first book, O Theophilus, I have dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach, until the day when he was taken up, after he had given commands through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.

This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”
