which jesus never predicted or said would happen upon his death so we rely on the testimony of luke for that right but jesus himself never spoke of this .
Even if you want to ignore what Luke wrote, and Paul, and Peter, you still have what John said Jesus said in John 14:15-31
John 7: 37-39
Jesus not only acknoweledged the Holy Spirit all accounts of the Gospel record He was also empowered by Him on the day of His Baptism.
since we have both acknowledged that modern translations have been corrupted by inaccuracies its kinda silly to quote these modern corrupted translations and base arguments on what these confused translations say . i would be interested in knowing what these verses actually said in the original greek but the problem with that is learning the greek language and finding original text in greek
