Bible Question (short): Baptized in name of Jesus or Trinitarian |
Question (full): I was raised as baptist and was baptized in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I have recently been attending a pentecostal church, and the topic of Baptism emerged. Can someone tell me: 1) Why does the Pentecostal faith focus on the references in Acts - Acts 2:38, Acts 8:12, Acts 8:16, Acts 10:48, Acts 19:5 that points to baptising in the name of Jesus? Instead of following the direction given by JESUS Himself to baptize in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit? Matthew 28:19 2) Is there a difference? 3) Can ones' salvation be in question if one was baptized in one way over the other? Thank you |
