Acts 19:1-10 - Paul Finds Disciples Of John The Baptist In Ephesus

1 And it came to pass while Apollos was at Corinth, for Paul, having passed through the upper regions, to come to Ephesus. And having found some disciples, 2 he said to them, Did ye receive Holy Spirit when ye believed? And they said to him, But we have not even heard if there is a Holy Spirit.

3 And he said to them, Into what then were ye immersed? And they said, Into John's immersion.

4 And Paul said, John indeed immersed an immersion of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe in him who was coming after him, that is, in Jesus, the Christ.

5 And when they heard this, they were immersed in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And Paul having laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues, and prophesied. 7 And all the men were about twelve.

8 And after entering into the synagogue, he spoke boldly for three months, discoursing and persuading the things about the kingdom of God. 9 But when some were hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, having withdrawn from them, he separated the disciples, discoursing daily in the school of a certain Tyrannus. 10 And this happened for two years, so as for all those dwelling in Asia to hear the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
