SOME body was a poor teacher to these believers!

Christianity was a brand new religion during the time of the Acts of the Apostles and almost all their knowledge of Jesus came from first hand accounts they heard from others. It's not surprising the newly baptized Christians of that era hadn't been informed about the Holy Spirit yet. It would also be difficult convincing those Christians that the bible alone is the sole source of authority, seeing as there was no "bible" yet.
