Re: Asking New Memebrs about their baptism

http://www.onenesspentecostal.com/name.htm

BRITANICA ENCYCLOPEDIA

The baptismal formula was changed from the name of Jesus Christ to the words Father, Son & Holy Ghost by the Catholic Church in the Second Century. – 11th Edit., Vol. 3, ppg. 365-366.

CANNEY ENCYCLOPEDIA OF RELIGION

The early church always baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus until development of the Trinity Doctrine in the Second Century.

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA

Here the Catholics acknowledged that baptism was changed by the Catholic Church. – Vol. 2, pg. 263.

HASTINGS ENCYCLOPEDIA OF RELIGION

Christian baptism was administered using the words, "in the name of Jesus." – Vol. 2, pg. 377. Baptism was always in the name of Lord Jesus until time of Justin Martyr when Triune formula used. – Vol. 2, pg. 389. NAME was an ancient synonym for "person." Payment was always made in the name of some person referring to ownership. Therefore one being baptized in Jesus’ name became His personal property. "Ye are Christ’s." – Vol. 2, pg. 377 on Acts 2:38.2

Jesus specifically sent out the apostles to preach the gospel.

The church is built UPON the FOUNDATION of the APOSTLES and the prophets...(Eph 2:20)

So if the apostles whom JESUS sent baptized in the NAME of Jesus Christ, then it would only make sense that the NAME of the Father, Son, and the HolyGhost is Jesus Christ...For the Name of JESUS CHRIST is the NAME above every other name...

The problem with the so called "church" is that if they obey Acts 2:38, it will be in direct CONTRAST to the doctrine of the TRINITY (which we all know the "church" loves to protect...)
