it's sad but there are Apostolic or Oneness Pentecostal groups that have really taken a stand on "the name" to be used at baptism. This has resulted in preaching that those who use titles like "Lord" and/or "Christ" may not be saved if they used those words or may only be saved if they used those words.
Some Apostolics or Oneness Pentecostals consider the formula "Lord Jesus Christ" to be triune or trinity and as bad as using the traditional Father, Son and Holy Ghost formula.
Some Apostolics believe God is three persons/personas/roles/offices/personalities/etc. and therefore requires three "names" (Lord plus Jesus plus Christ) to cover Him/them.
Some believe the name of the Father is Lord; the name of the Son is Jesus; and the name of the Holy Ghost is Christ so the full name for the full God is "Lord Jesus Christ."
