Is that any help?

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.
