14. Unto Him that loved us and washed us from our sins in his
own blood. Rev 1:5

15. On the feast day of Pentecost, AD 33 the Holy Ghost was poured out.
This was the beginning of the Apostolic Church. One hundred and twenty
people were in the upper room in one mind and in one accord, and they
were all filled with the Spirit of God. The Apostles came down praising
and glorifying God. Peter started preaching (with the eleven behind him)
and men were pricked in their hearts. They asked, "Men and bretheren,
what shall we do? (see acts 2:1-37)

16. Then Peter said unto them, "Repent and be baptized everyone of you
in the NAME of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive
the gift of the HOly Ghost. Acts 2:38

17. Then they that gladly received his word were baptized, and the same
day there were added unto them abou t three thousand souls. acts 2:41

18. When they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom
of God and the NAME of Jesus Christ, they baptized both men and women.
Acts 8:12

19. Baptism is the answer of a good conscience toward God. 1 Peter 3:21

20. Then Philip opened his mouth and began at the same scripture and
preached unto him JESUS. Acts 8:35

21. And they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch,
and he baptized him. Acts 8:38

22. He commanded them to be baptized in the NAME of the LORD.
Acts 10:40

23. When they heard this they were baptized in the NAME OF THE
LORD JESUS. Acts 19:5

24. Buried with him in baptism wherein also ye are risen with him through
the faith of the operation of God who hath raised him from the dead.
Col 2:12

25. Know ye not that so many of us as were baptized in to Jesus Christ
were baptized into His death. Ro 6:3

26. But ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the
NAME of the LORD JESUS. 1 Cor 6:11

27. Why tarrieth thou? Arise and be baptized, and wash away thy sins
calling on the NAME of the Lord.
Acts 22:16

28. Baptism by immersion in water signifies the washing away of sin by
His blood.

29. The blood of Jesus covers, cleanses, washes away, and makes the
vilest sinner white as snow.

We Ask the following questions. (Answers can be found in KJV Bible)

30. Who took on the form of man to save sinners?
Jn 1:14, 1 Tim 1:15

31. Who was crucified and shed his blood to cover sin?
Ro 5:9, 1 Cor 15:3, 1 Jn 1:7

32. Who alone can forgive and remit sin?
Mt 12:31, Jn 20:23, Mk 2:7, Lu 7:48

If you believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God,
then tell me who should be baptized in the name of Jesus?

33. The Jews.
Acts 2:36-39

34. The Samaritans.
Acts 8:14-16

35. The Ethiopians.
Acts 8:35-39

36. The Gentiles.
Acts 10:45-48

37. All believers who had been previously baptized with other baptisms.
Acts 19:1-5

38. You, your children, and all that are afar off.
Acts 2:39

39. Whatsoever ye do in word or in deed DO ALL in the NAME of the Lord JESUS.
Col 3:17

40. There is none other name under Heaven given among men whereby
we must be saved. Acts 4:12

Everybody who wants to serve God needs to be baptized in name of Jesus.
This is the only way to be baptized.
If you have been baptized in any other way please find a preacher
who will baptize you the correct way that God commands...
IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

Matt 28:19 requires baptism in the Name. (not titles)
Father is not the name.
Son is not the name.
Holy Ghost is not the name.
JESUS is the name of the Father and of Son and of the HOly Ghost.

According to the Word of God
Jesus came in his father's name
and sent us the Holy Spirit in His name.

The only way to be baptized
in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost
Is To Be Baptized In JESUS NAME.

Remember baptism will not help you
if you do not repent.
Ask God to forgive your sins
and then get baptized in the name of JESUS.
God has promised to fill all who will do this with the Holy Ghost.
The Holy Ghost which is the Spirit of God
will continue to guide you into all truth.

" 40 POINTS OF INTEREST "


Now for the rest of the story -

This is why I wrote the "40 Points Of Interest"



Some years ago little 6 yr old 'Patrice '
was enrolled in a summer day camp program
staffed in part by a local Word of Faith Church
and
while waiting to be picked up by her mother
Patrice saw the Word of Faith Pastor baptize
an individual using the triune formula -

Patrice quickly informed him that he had Not baptized
that girl in JESUS Name
and that her Pastor says that JESUS Name Baptism
Was The Only Way To Be Baptized
According to the Bible -

That Word of Faith Pastor had a regular Sunday Morning
TV Broadcast.
He spent the next 4 Sundays calling us a CULT
and that Our Church Was Preaching HERESEY -

As The Result Of The First Telecast
I Printed Thousands Of Posters and Flyers
of the "40 Points Of Interest".
We placed the flyers on All cars in a 4 block radius
of his Church, including Cars in Parking Lots.
We Attatched The Large Posters To All Light Poles,
Trees and Signs In That Same Area.

That Pastor promptly Filed For and Placed Me On A
Peace Bond Forbidding Me From Coming Within 500
Feet Of Their Church.

I placed an advt in our local paper Welcoming him
to Our Church and Inviting Him To Visit At Any Time.

I Also Listed The Following ;

# 1 - His Baptismal Formula -
# 2 - The Childs Response To His Formula -
# 3 - A brief summary of his TV attack -
# 4 - My response by printing the "40 Points Of Interest -
# 5 - A Statment about his additional 3 TV programs -
And
A Demand For Equal TV Time For My Response
Was Made To That Pastor And The TV Station -

Hundreds were Baptized According To Acts 2:38
As Direct Results Of That Series Of Events !

I Thank GOD For That Small Child And Her Belief That Day !

Regards

Bishop1
