Nope. Fulfilment of Mathew 28:19 ?? All the Acts accounts of baptism had allready taken place long before Mathew ever penned the words in his gospel.

Mathew wrote those words in the telling of Christs commands ans said "Father Son and Holy Ghost"

Luke reported the same account saying, "that repentance and remissiion of sins should be preached in his name beginning at jersalem"

Mark records the same event and says, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved...


Three accounts of the very same event and everyone worded and told differently.

All three written several years into the history of the church,

The apostles were not nearly as excited about "exact" wording of their accounts of baptism as WE are.

I say again ,,we are much more excited about this than Jesus is.

For those of us who say it's got to be said exactly or no sins are remitted.

You might want to do some further study of the NAME.

Most scholars agree we got it translated wrong as Jesus..in our english language it should have been translated, Yeshua (sp)


Again , just my thoughts here.. I baptize saying, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins, and God 's word say's you SHALL receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Take my WHOLE post, freeatlast, not just parse it. Thanks!

GL, you have it right! :tiphat

How about this Peter knew exactly what Jesus meant when He commanded them to baptize in the NAME...singular...and the apostles obeyed the Lord. You can't be serious in saying Peter and Philip and Paul etc all disobeyed the Lord. That would mean Jesus wasted three years of instruction on these men! And that our Trinitarian friends got it right over 250 years later!

20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: ....

Lu 24:47, Acts 2:38, Acts 22:16, Acts 8:12, Acts 8:16.......

Check out these scriptures to start and then do your own search on baptism, remission of the sins, the name of Jesus Christ. It is best when you search the scriptures on your own. See for yourself what the Bible says, then bring forth questions like : Why in the book of Acts wasn't anyone baptized in the titles Father, Son, and Holy Ghost? What happens when we are baptized? Why is the name of Jesus Christ important in baptism? etc...But to say the apostles disobeyed Christ is completely way off base. Their teachings are the foundation of our faith with Jesus being the chief cornerstone.

You believe the name is wrong, yet you use it? :confused:

Remind Us Again Why We Ignore this Passage
 

Take your check to the bank and sign it with father, son and friend, etc.

No, you won't get results because that is not your name. Our name is our

identify. It is our sign...our signature!!! We were named at birth or shortly

thereafter! Where did we get our family name! From our father! Jesus did

too!

Didn't say I agreed with the "Yeshua teaching" ..just amking a point.

My point is that it's US that are so concerned over this subject and not God.

I know this is a Jesus Only forum so I will make no further attempts at reason.

Ya all carry on. :aaa

Were the disciples right or wrong?

BTW, freeatlast, it appears you might not be sure, so you don't want to take a chance...:hmmm

This is written with all respect.

Good, because your first few weren't very good. :slaphappy

AMEN!!!!::happydance

I know exactly what you're saying, FAL, and I agree with you. Your facts are correct and you are just making a point. Good point. I don't agree with the "Yeshua" teaching either, but if some folks are going to make the name a "talisman" then they can't correctly use the "Grecian" form of Yeshua, which is Jesus. Actually, it is not even Jesus, it is spelled with an "I."
