country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples. 2And he said to them, d“Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” And they said, “No, ewe have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” 3And he said, f“Into what then were you baptized?” They said, “Into gJohn’s baptism.” 4And Paul said, h“John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people ito believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, Jesus.” 5On hearing this, jthey were baptized in ▼▼Or into
the name of the Lord Jesus. 6And lwhen Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and mthey began speaking in tongues and nprophesying. Romans 8:16
