2. And it happened that while Apollos was at
Corinth, Paul passed through the inland
country and came to Ephesus. There he
found some disciples. And he said to them,
“Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you
believed?” And they said, “No, we have not
even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” And
he said, “Into what then were you
bapFzed?” They said, “Into John's
bapFsm.”
3. And Paul said, “John bapFzed with the
bapFsm of repentance, telling the people
to believe in the one who was to come
aJer him, that is, Jesus.” On hearing this,
they were bapFzed in the name of the Lord
Jesus. And when Paul had laid his hands on
them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and
they began speaking in tongues and
prophesying. There were about twelve
men in all.
Acts 19:1-‐7 (ESV)
9. “But you will receive power when
the Holy Spirit has come upon you,
and you will be my witnesses in
Jerusalem and in all Judea and
Samaria, and to the end of the
earth.”
Acts 1:8 (ESV)
10. Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with
you. As the Father has sent me, even so I
am sending you.” And when he had said
this, he breathed on them and said to
them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you
forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven
them; if you withhold forgiveness from any,
it is withheld.”
John 20:21-‐23 (ESV)
11. And while staying with them he ordered
them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to

bapFzed with water, but you will be
bapFzed with the Holy Spirit not many
days from now.”
