How about:
John 3:3-5 "Jesus answered and said to him: Amen, amen, I say to thee, unless a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith to him: How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born again? Jesus answered: Amen, amen, I say to thee, unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."
Matthew 28:19 "Going therefore, teach ye all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost."
Acts 2:38-39 "But Peter said to them: Do penance: and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of your sins. And you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is to you and to your children and to all that are far off, whomsoever the Lord our God shall call."
With love in Christ.

It surely is going a lot further than baptizing in a particular call. The "Jesus only" people deny the Holy Trinity and that is the genuine reason they don't opt to baptize interior the call of the daddy, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Oneness Pentecostals favor to study 3 passages of Scriptures intently. (a million) even as the Samaritans interior the e book of Acts received Christ, Peter went to them to baptize them. He requested them in the adventure that they'd received the Holy Spirit for the reason that they believed (once they believed, no longer even as they believed.) They stated they'd no longer even heard of the Holy Spirt. Then Peter requested them, "Then what were you baptized unto?" Peter knew that they could have heard of the Holy Spirit in the adventure that they'd received Christian baptism as a results of the indisputable fact that is done interior the call of the daddy, the Son, AND the Holy Spirit. (2) Cornelius changed into baptized interior the Holy Spirit before he changed into baptized in water. Acts says he and his better half and children believed and so the Spirit fell on them. Water baptism did not keep him nor his kinfolk. (3) The thief on the bypass changed into kept without baptism. A fourth factor is major also. God is ONE in team spirit, no longer in man or woman. His call in Hebrew is plural (Elohim). that is a uni-plural noun like the word kinfolk. There may be ONE kinfolk of three persons. that does no longer recommend there are 3 households. The Godhead is precisely like that. in case you do not think that, how do you interpret Genesis the position God says, "enable us make guy in OUR own image. enable us create him male and lady." God is plural the following. He changed into no longer chatting with angels because they don't create and we are no longer made in only like angels. also John a million:a million says "interior the initiating changed into the word (=Jesus) and the word changed into WITH God (i.e. God the daddy) and the word changed into GOD (i.e. God the Son). there are countless passages in both Testaments that coach that the daddy isn't the Son and neither one is the Holy Spirit. Theya re considered at the same time, no longer gradually.

Mat 3:16And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
Mat 3:17And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
