Acts 19  
        1 And it came to
        pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having
        passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and
        finding certain disciples, 
        2 He said unto
        them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?
        And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard
        whether there be any Holy Ghost. 
        3 And he said unto
        them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said,
        Unto John's baptism. 
        4 Then said Paul,
        John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance,
        saying unto the people, that they should believe on him
        which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. 
        5 When they heard this,
        they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 
        6 And when Paul had
        laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on
        them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. 
        7 And all the men
        were about twelve. 
        8 And he went into
        the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three
        months, disputing and persuading the things concerning
        the kingdom of God. 
        9 But when divers
        were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that
        way before the multitude, he departed from them, and
        separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of
        one Tyrannus. 
        10 And this
        continued by the space of two years; so that all they
        which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus,
        both Jews and Greeks. 
        11 And God wrought
        special miracles by the hands of Paul: 
        12 So that from his
        body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons,
        and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits
        went out of them.
