1 While Apollos was in Corinth, Paul traveled through the interior of the province and arrived in Ephesus. There he found some disciples

3 "Well, then, what kind of baptism did you receive?" Paul asked. "The baptism of John," they answered.

5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

6 Paul placed his hands on them, and the Holy Spirit came upon them; they spoke in strange tongues and also proclaimed God's message.

7 They were about twelve men in all.
