Reading 1, Acts 19:1-8
1 It happened that while Apollos was in Corinth, Paul made his way overland as far as Ephesus, where he found a number of disciples.
2 When he asked, 'Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?' they answered, 'No, we were never even told there was such a thing as a Holy Spirit.'
3 He asked, 'Then how were you baptised?' They replied, 'With John's baptism.'

33 I have told you all this so that you may find peace in me. In the world you will have hardship, but be courageous: I have conquered the world.
