Acts 19:1-7

Paul Goes to Ephesus

1 While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul took the road to Ephesus. When he arrived, he found some believers there.
2 He asked them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?" "No," they answered. "We haven't even heard that there is a Holy Spirit."
3 So Paul asked, "Then what baptism did you receive?" "John's baptism," they replied.
4 Paul said, "John baptized people, calling them to turn away from their sins. He told them to believe in the one who was coming after him. Jesus is that one."
5 After hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
6 Paul placed his hands on them. Then the Holy Spirit came on them. They spoke in languages they had not known before. They also prophesied.
7 There were about 12 of them in all.
