Acts 18:8 Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue. Though the synagogue opposed, its president became a Christian with all his family. Paul baptized him with his own hands (1 Corinthians 1:14). Many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized. This describes the gospel process of conversion. The word is preached, faith comes by hearing (Romans 10:17), confession (Romans 10:10) and baptism (Romans 6:3) follow. This is the invariable order in the New Testament.
