Section 3D of Preface: After Jesus Comes Again
 "And
after He (Jesus) had said these things, He was
lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud
received Him out of their sight. And as they were
gazing intently into the sky while He was departing,
behold, two men in white clothing stood beside them;
and they also said, "Men of Galilee, why do you
stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been
taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the
same way as you have watched Him go into heaven."
Acts 1:9-11 (NAS)

After
Jesus told the apostles these things, he was lifted
up into the sky. While the apostles were watching,
Jesus went into a cloud, and they could not see him.
10Jesus was going away, and the apostles
were looking into the sky. Suddenly, two men
(angels) wearing white clothes stood beside them.
11The two men said to the apostles, "Men
from Galilee, why are you standing here looking into
the sky? You saw Jesus carried away from you into
heaven. He will come back in the same way you saw
him go." (ERV) 
"And
when he had said these things, as they were looking,
he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of
their sight. And while they were looking stedfastly
into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by
them in white apparel; who also said, Ye men of
Galilee, why stand ye looking into heaven? this
Jesus, who was received up from you into heaven
shall so come in like manner as ye beheld him going
into heaven." (ASV)
"And
when he had spoken these things, while they beheld,
he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of
their sight. And while they looked stedfastly toward
heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them
in white apparel; Which also said, Ye men of
Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this
same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven,
shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go
into heaven." (KJV)
