Paul and the Corinthians


Acts 19: 1-12; 20: 7-12

During his ministry with the Corinthians Paul performed at least five priesthood ordinances:

1.      Re-baptized the Corinthian saints.
a.       they Corinthians had been baptized by Paul for repentance.
2.      Laid his hands on their heads to give the Holy Ghost.
3.      Did miracles by the Lord.
4.      Healed the sick.
5.      Forced evil spirits out of men.

1.      Paul re-baptized the Corinthian saints because he hadn’t been done right the first time.
2.      This shows that if a person is baptized in the wrong way, through the wrong authority, of a different principle, then it must be done again according to the right authority, priesthood, and for the right reason.
3.      Paul bestowed the gift of the Holy Ghost by laying his hands upon them.
4.      The saints met on the first day of the week. The day was changed because it was the day that Christ returned to the Jews.
