Acts 8:7-12

⁷For unclean spirits came out from those who had them, crying with a loud voice; and a number of those who were ill and broken in body were made well.

⁸And there was much joy in that town.

⁹But there was a certain man named Simon, who in the past had been a wonder-worker and a cause of surprise to the people of Samaria, saying that he himself was a great man:

¹⁰To whom they all gave attention, from the smallest to the greatest, saying, This man is that power of God which is named Great.

¹¹And they gave attention to him, because for a long time his wonder-working powers had kept them under his control.

¹²But when they had faith in the good news given by Philip about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, a number of men and women had baptism.
