Acts

Acts 19:1–3

¹While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the interior^a and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples ²and asked them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?”

“No,” they answered, “we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”

³“Into what, then, were you baptized?” Paul asked.

“The baptism of John,” they replied.
