AMPLIFIED 2015 | Acts 2:38 And Peter said to them, "Repent [change your old way of thinking, turn from your sinful ways, accept and follow Jesus as the Messiah] and be baptized, each of you, in the name of Jesus Christ because of the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. |
Bible Question:
WHAT baptism do you believe in... Father, son, holyghost or Jesus name? |
Bible Answer: These are not two different things. To say so is to say that Either Matthew or Peter or Luke (writer of Acts) were not inspired when it was written. But if we believe they were inspired then we conclude that they must mean the same thing. If we understand that "In the name of" means to be sent in the authority of then we see how both mean the same thing. To be sent to baptize becuase God sent you or becuase Jesus sent you is what Gives you the right to baptize. The "in the name of" here applies both to the one sent to baptize others as well as by what faith the believer is being baptized into. |
