Acts 1:1-2 says this:
1 IN THE former account [which I prepared], O Theophilus, I made [a continuous report] dealing with all the things which Jesus began to do and to teach 2 Until the day when He ascended, after He through the Holy Spirit had instructed and commanded the apostles (special messengers) whom He had chosen.
Did you notice that Luke said here that his Gospel account was of what Jesus "began" to do and to teach? Jesus ministered on the earth or three years before His death, burial and resurrection and Luke is saying that this was the beginning! Do you know why there is an account of what Jesus "began" to do, but not an account of Him finishing? Why do you think that might be? Look at Matthew 28:19-20:
18 All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. KJV
12 I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, if anyone steadfastly believes in Me, he will himself be able to do the things that I do; and he will do even greater things than these, because I go to the Father. AMP
He is fully expecting that those who have been born again by receiving Him as our Lord and personal Savior will go out and continue to work the same things He did! What did He do? He went about teaching, preaching and healing (Matthew 9:35)! We are to be doing this, at the very least, and then even more as we are led by the Holy Spirit Who lives IN US! We needn't bother asking what the "greater things" are until we are at least doing the works that Jesus did! So, LET'S GO! Amen! Here is a song I have shared several times, but it is most appropriate today! Hillsong United with "Go":
Shalom in Him!
