Even though you are not a Oneness Pentecostal, this article may still benefit you.

Must baptism be "in Jesus' name"?
Dan, answer me now.

What is the name of the son???

Can you post the name of the son?

Do you know it?

Have you ever heard of it?

I will not give you a hint, because you said that you were baptized in the name of the son...therefore you must know his name.

Are you embarrassed to openly say the son's name???

He certainly denied the Son's name at baptism (which is where we take on the name) ... and the Son will deny him unless he takes on the name of the groom.

Hint: The name of the groom is not "groom"

I wonder if he knows the "name" of the Holy Ghost ... since he was baptized in his name too.

This will be interesting ... let me grab some popcorn.

Listen....Pentecost is still happening today.

Pentecost is a Jewish Old Testament Feast, giving to the Jews.
Are you a Jew?
"Pentecost' happens once a Year.....Its a Jewish, JEWISH Feast.
Are you a Jew?

So, "charismatics" who know nothing about any of this, like to run around obsessing about "tongues", when in fact, the entire pentecostal - charismatic movement, does not even know the difference between a pray language and a gift of a Foreign Language that Peter was given in Acts 2.
See that Gift?
You dont have it.

Jesus...."Emmanuel"...... "God with us".........God manifested in the Flesh.....1 Timothy 3:16
That is who He is . Thus let none ever once heed the table of compromise .
Behold . A large table has been set up in the midst of christendom . Its sold the truth out for the sake of common ground and unity .
And has made its bed with those who preach that one does not have to BELIEVE in JESUS to be saved .
I will die and die ten thousand deaths before i ever once sit at such a table . And we all better do the same .
Muhammed cannot save the muslims , nor budda the buddits , nor can their so called works .
IT IS FAITH IN JESUS that saves . I take this gospel and stand on it alone . Better none
who name the name of JESUS make your BED with this other lie , nor have any kind of unity with those who support the lie .
Which means , COME YE OUT from amongst those who have gathered with a harlot and BE YE HOLY
and CLING to CHRIST and hold the one true gospel , faith in JESUS firm to the end .

IT IS FAITH IN JESUS that saves .

Actually its GOD who saves you through your faith, as FAITH is not the savior.
FAITH, "is counted as Righteousness".....you are "justified by faith".

So, its not Faith that Saves....ITs GOD who saves, BECAUSE you gave Him your faith...

"the will of God is that you believe on Jesus, whom God sent".

If you do that....God will accept your faith...to SAVE YOU. = "born again".

Kinda weird the Christians do not know the name of Jesus their Lord.

Could it be because they are Acts skippers?

I know what the name of the Holy Ghost is.

Jesus said the Holy Ghost shall be sent in his name.

This means when you call "Jesus', the Holy Ghost comes.

I wonder why?

Yes indeed and it shall continue till the Lord comes for the lambs .
What the prophet joel spoke concerning in those days i shall pour out my Spirit and etc
That BEGAN on the day of pentecost . Just as later
peter would speak in another place to the church about what AMOS had prophesied .
The building of the temple and the paths . That was all about JESUS and the gospel and going out to the gentiles as well .
Lots of folks are looking for these prophecies to come to pass , WHEN INDEED they have along already been doing so .
In other words they keep looking for a physical building and some kind of end time awakening .
When in truth the only thing i ever read in the bible says , Great falling away , and etc .
The outpouring of the HOLY GHOST began on the glorious day of pentecost and has continued ever since .
And we cling to heavenly jerusalem , the city of GOD , wherein the TEMPLE OF said city is GOD and the Lamb .
Now pull those gospel boots on , cause we in a massive battle . It is the one true gospel of Christ
verses the ever growing all inclusive go spell of a lie birthed in darkness and shall end at the second death .
its that serious truther . That serious that we do not make our bed with a harlot , nor sit at her table of compromise
for unity , nor eat of the table of her compromise for common ground and unity . For her delicacies are death
and they who eat of them shall lose their sweet words . Its a very deceptive time we are in .
And the devil knows how to use words like love , tolerance , freedom , liberty and unity . But beware
Him , for he brings a tainted version of said words . HE is the father of lies and there be no truth in Him .
And his men who have heavily infiltrated Christendom itself , know how to appear as men of righteouness
yet be there to only decieve and allure all through a false hope , false love and a super deadly unity .
WE must not come nigh her chambers . For they go down unto the dead and the end of that covenant is the second death .

Tongues follows the baptism of the Holy Ghost.

The baptism of the Holy Ghost comes through a praise from our inner being.

First repent, then when we finish repenting, ask God to fill you with the Holy Ghost, then begin to praise Him until you feel the power that Jesus spoke of in Acts 1 come upon you per Acts 2.

At that moment in your life, you will be in unison with the Acts 2 church.

After that happens, you must be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins per verse 38.

You can only be added to the church via water baptism per Acts 2:38-41....


41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.
These were only foreshadowings.

The apostle Paul ("line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little there a little") elaborated to say, "the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual."

He (Paul) also, even then--two thousand years ago counselled against such religious practices, saying:

"For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food. For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. And this we will do if God permits."
So, no, the early church did not get it right...and sadly, the church has only promoted those things he counselled against and made a desert out of what might have been a fruitful field.

It looks like you are saying Jesus goofed when he told Nicodemus, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."

And Mark 16:16 says, "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned."

Paul wrote to the Romans saying, "Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

I'll never forget, my [physical] brother and I once got invited to discuss "church
of Christ" doctrines. When we got to Romans 6:3-5, my brother asked "where
is the water In That Context?" An elder in the group must have gotten angry
with that [Most stupidest? question Ever ASKED], as his necked turned beet red,
and he Almost shouted at us:

"It must Be INFERRED!" We IMMEDIATELY knew "it WAS TIME for us" to
depart/RUN From That meeting. :(

God Only Has ONE Baptism, For us, today, Under His Pure GRACE.

GRACE And Peace...

If the information from the article that I shared with you went right over your head, then you are thoroughly indoctrinated and unteachable. I will now leave you to your childish games and your folly. You are not fooling anyone except the already fooled.

That was disappointing. I had the popcorn and 3d glasses ready for the ensuing discussion of Truther and Dan.

Does baptism in the name of the Father, Son, Holy Ghost mean this?...

"Therefore we are buried with him(Father, Son, Holy Ghost) by baptism into death: that like as Christ(Father, Son, Holy Ghost) was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his(Father, Son, Holy Ghost) death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:"

I’m sure you are disappointment as you obviously feed on contention. Do you have a problem with the words of Jesus in Matthew 28:19? Do you believe that Romans 6:3-5 some how negates Matthew 28:19?

Greek scholar AT Robertson provides a good commentary on Romans 6:3-5.
