Their children and their children's children have continued doing as their fathers did, to this day.

Then Peter answered, 47 Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have? 48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to stay a few days. 1 And the apostles and brothers that were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God. 2 And when Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision argued with him, 3 Saying, You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them. 4 But Peter explained the matter from the beginning and described it in order to them, saying, 5 I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision, a certain object descending like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came to me. 6 Upon which when I had fixed my eyes, I considered and saw four-footed animals of the earth, and wild beasts, and crawling creatures, and birds of the air. 7 And I heard a voice saying to me, Arise, Peter; kill and eat. 8 But I said, Not so, Lord; for nothing common or unclean has ever entered my mouth. 9 But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God has cleansed, do not call common. 10 And this was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven. 11 And immediately there were three men already come to the house where I was, sent from Caesarea to me. 12 And the Spirit told me to go with them, doubting nothing. Moreover, these six brothers accompanied me, and we entered the man's house: 13 And he showed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said to him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter; 14 Who shall tell you words, whereby you and all your house shall be saved. 15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, as on us at the beginning. 16 Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, John indeed baptized with water; but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit. 17 Since then God gave them the same gift as he did to us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; who was I that I could withstand God? 18 When they heard these things, they held their peace and glorified God, saying, Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance unto life.

They had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 17 Then they laid hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit. 18 And when Simon saw that through the laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money, 19 Saying, Give me this power also, that anyone on whom I lay hands may receive the Holy Spirit. 20 But Peter said to him, Your money perish with you, because you thought that the gift of God could be purchased with money. 21 You have neither part nor portion in this matter, for your heart is not right in the sight of God. 22 Repent therefore of this wickedness, and pray God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you. 23 For I perceive that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity. 24 Then Simon answered and said, Pray to the Lord for me, that none of the things you have spoken may come upon me. 25 And when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.
