Re: I Baptized my Kid in Jesus name last night!
I will leave the baptism thing alone (cause it's a potential landmine topic and COOP knows it).
My question is this.
Why would you even attend a church where the pastor and bylaws of the church affirm trinitarian doctrine, baptism as nothing more than a Christian rite and the like?
To me, you are teaching your kids that those beliefs are perfectly acceptable.

Land mine topic? Why would you blow?

Did they understand why you attend a trinny church? Why you disregard the pastor's teaching and preferences on baptism? Why all of the confusion?

Just as much confusion would be to attend a church where he disregards the pastor's teachings and preferences on standards just so the pastor can say "in Jesus name".
Apparently, Coop talked with his kids and let them understand the importance of being baptized in Jesus name and the kids like that church.
What's important at the end of the day is not where or who baptized the kids, but that they were baptized in Jesus name, right?

They do not make a big deal over doctrinal differences as Apostolics would.
There is not any confusion that I know of.
I am not marked as a dog or a rebel for dis-regard to mode of baptism.
Now, I would ask you. Would you let a Trinitarian baptize his child as you Speak "in the name of Jesus" and he says Father son Holy Ghost?

Are you saying the Baptism of my children was null and void?

Absolutely not in the church I pastor.
Cause I believe baptism is more than just some meaningless incantation.
The words mean something to me, and to God.

That is why I performed the baptism and spoke in Jesus name.
Are you saying when I baptized my kids it was meaningless and void?
If I were a pastor and a Trinity father wanted to baptize his child, I would agree to to it together.
I would speak in Jesus name, as he says F.S.HG..... as long as the name of Jesus was spoken over the baptism.
The one getting baptized he getting the benefit. Why rob the Baptism candidate Jesus name baptism over doctrinal pride?
