Subject: Jesus name baptism fulflls matt 28 |
Bible Note: Not sure about that one.. Its you again huh? That is wonderful, we are both quite active today huh?... Let me tell you what I think. I think that wehn Jesus said the NAME he meant his name. Because his name is above all names, also in Him dwelleth the fullness of the Godhead bodily. I realize the Trinitarian veiwpoint of "these are Jesus'words. However once again there is a consistency that cannot be ignored. This is found in the book of Acts... every baptism is done in Jesus name and not just by Peter but also by Paul and others. I do not believe that this was an abbreviated form of the Matt 28 but the fullness of it... why abreviate over and over again throughout the entire book.... Lets remember that Johns baptism was not the same as Jesus name baptism.. this iswhy Paul insisted that the two Ephesian be re-baptized or baptized in Jesus name. I realize that this view is only found in yoru "oneness" churches and different sects of the charismatic movement. I thinkthat is however only due to the ormula being changed by catholocism and not because the evangellical or protestant church felt this was the best way...however should any one argue my speal goes this way "I baptize you in the name if the father and the son andthe holy ghost with in whom the fullness of the Godhead swelled bodily...I baptize you in the name of Jesus Christ" A bit lenghty but worth it..... I look forward to yoru response |
