While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul took the road through the interior and arrived at Ephesus. There he found some disciples and asked them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?”
WelcomeThey answered, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”
So Paul asked, “Then what baptism did you receive?”
“John’s baptism,” they replied.
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.”
On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied. There were about twelve men in all.
Acts 19:1-7 NIV

How Do I Become A Christian?
Knowing Christ is the basis of everything about Christianity and salvation. If you don't have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ
or you want to know more about Christianity, this is the place to start.
One of the most remarkable aspects of being a Christian is the process of growing in Christ. It is a continuouse, life-long process.
It involves becoming more intimate with God. Growth reveals our roles, our resources, our power, and our gifts as members of the Kingdom
of God.
Maturing in Christ is sharing. Sharing the Gospel, sharing our blessings, sharing our time and talents, and sharing ourselves
with God.
