Quick Baptisms

Acts 2:38, 41 Peter said to them, “Repent, and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. . . . Then those who gladly received his word were baptized. There were added that day about three thousand souls.

Acts 16:33 He took them the same hour of the night and washed their stripes, and was immediately baptized, he and all his household.
