How do we occupy ourselves as believers when God brings us to a time where we must wait? That's where the disciples were. Jesus had ascended back to heaven, He had told them to return to Jerusalem, and now they had to wait for the promise of the Holy Spirit to come.

We are a people with: A Present Focus, A Divine Empowerment, A Clear Identity, A Sovereign King, and A Certain Hope.

In these opening verses, we also have Jesus once again promising to His disciples the coming baptism of the Holy Spirit.
