Tuesday: Changing the World - Getting in the Game

Today's Reading:
​Acts 19:1-7 (NIV)
1 While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul took the road through the interior and arrived at Ephesus.  There he found some disciples 2 and asked them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?”  They answered, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”  3 So Paul asked, “Then what baptism did you receive?”  “John’s baptism,” they replied.  4 Paul said, “John’s baptism was a baptism of repentance. He told the people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus.” 5 On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied. 7 There were about twelve men in all.
Consider This:
  • What is happening in this passage?
  • How do you understand it?
  • What “belief systems” are affecting the people in this passage?
  • What is Paul’s motivation?
  • Do you think the “disciples’ were offended?
  • Would you have been offended? 
Treasure Application:
  • What incorrect or incomplete understanding about God did these disciples have?
  • What did learning about the baptism of Jesus set free in these disciples lives?
