WEB ▾Acts ▾8 ▾Acts 8:5-175Philip went down to the city of Samaria and proclaimed to them the Christ.6The multitudes listened with one accord to the things that were spoken by Philip when they heard and saw the signs which he did.7For unclean spirits came out of many of those who had them. They came out, crying with a loud voice. Many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed.8There was great joy in that city.9But there was a certain man, Simon by name, who used to practice sorcery in the city and amazed the people of Samaria, making himself out to be some great one,10to whom they all listened, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is that great power of God.”11They listened to him because for a long time he had amazed them with his sorceries.12But when they believed Philip preaching good news concerning God’s Kingdom and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.13Simon himself also believed. Being baptized, he continued with Philip. Seeing signs and great miracles occurring, he was amazed.14Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them,15who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit;16for as yet he had fallen on none of them. They had only been baptized in the name of Christ Jesus.17Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.Acts 7Acts 8Acts 9
