For John indeed baptised with water; but ye shall be baptised with the Holy Ghost not many days after the present.

But as they went on the road, they came to some water: and the eunuch said, Here is water, what forbids my being baptised?

And he bid the carriage stop: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptised him.

But when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught up Philip, and the eunuch saw him no more: then he went on his way rejoicing.

Can any one forbid the water for baptising these persons, who have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?

Then I recollected the word of the Lord, how he had said, John indeed baptised with water; but ye shall be baptised with the Holy Ghost.

But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus; but utter words of truth and sobriety.
