Some baptize repeating the words father son and holy ghost but no one in the Bible ever did it that way. The Bible said to baptize in the NAME of so it does not mean in the NAMES father son and Holy Ghost.

Answer 1

Jesus commanded us to baptise in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit and the Apostles baptised in the name of Jesus.

Answer 2

In the name of the Father,the Son and the Holy Ghost.

Answer 3

What does it mean to be baptized “in the name of the Father”? It means that the baptismal candidate recognizes our heavenly Father’s office and authority. Jehovah God is thus acknowledged as our Creator, “the Most High over all the earth,” and the Universal Sovereign. Psalm 83:18; Isaiah 40:28; Acts 4:24.

To be baptized ‘in the name of the Son’ means to recognize Jesus’ office and authority as God’s only-begotten Son. (1 John 4:9) Those qualified for baptism accept Jesus as the one through whom God has provided “a ransom in exchange for many.” (Matthew 20:28; 1 Timothy 2:5, 6) Baptismal candidates must also acknowledge the “superior position” to which God has exalted his Son. Philippians 2:8-11; Revelation 19:16.

What is the significance of baptism ‘in the name of the holy spirit’? This indicates that the baptismal candidates recognize that the holy spirit is Jehovah’s active force, used in various ways in harmony with his purpose. (Genesis 1:2; 2 Samuel 23:1, 2; 2 Peter 1:21) Those qualifying for baptism acknowledge that the holy spirit helps them to understand “the deep things of God,” to carry on the Kingdom-preaching work, and to display the spirit’s fruitage of “love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control.”

Answer 4

In the name of the father, in the name of the son, and in the name of the Holy Ghost.

Answer 5

Jesus Christ Himself commanded the Apostles to baptize in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Baptizing in the name of Jesus means baptizing according to His will. He revealed His will when He gave the Apostles this command. Baptizing any other way is direct disobedience to a direct command from the Lord God Himself. Therefore such a baptism is not done in His name, regardless of what words are said.

Answer 7

Peace!
I think we should all follow the baptismal formula given by Jesus Christ himself before he went up to heaven. He said, "Go, therefore, and make disciples from all nations. Baptize them in then Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teach them to fulfill all that I have commanded you." - Matthew 28, 19-20a

Answer 8

I am afraid baptize meant something different in those days. It was a spiritual rebirth. Does "born again" ring a bell? I am also afraid that "father, son, and Holy Ghost" was not the original text: It was added. I am not saying it wasn't important to credit them, for our spirituality.

When we were first born we only loved ourselves.

Jesus told us to not only love God, but to love our neighbors. When you start loving your neighbors you are like being born again spiritually.

Answer 9

Mat 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

EL: God ("mighty, strong, prominent") used 250 times in the OT

ELOHIM: God (a plural noun, more than two, used with singular verbs); Elohim occurs 2,570 times in the OT


EL SHADDAI: God Almighty or "God All Sufficient." 48 times in the OT


ADONAI: Lord in our English Bibles (Capitol letter 'L ', lower case, 'ord') (Adonai is plural, the sing. is "adon"). "Master'' or "Lord" 300 times in the OT always plural when referring to God

JEHOVAH: LORD in our English Bibles (all capitals). Yahweh is the covenant name of God. Occurs 6823 times in the OT

JEHOVAH-JIREH: "The Lord will Provide." Gen. 22:14. From "jireh" ("to see" or "to provide," or to "foresee" as a prophet.)

JEHOVAH-ROPHE: "The Lord Who Heals" Ex. 15:22-26. From "rophe" ("to heal"); implies spiritual, emotional as well as physical healing

JEHOVAH-NISSI: "The Lord Our Banner." Ex. 17:15. God on the battlefield, from word which means "to glisten," "to lift up," See Psalm 4:6.

ETC...etc...etc...

Which name again? God only has one name? No He is known by so many different names, each describes some of His attributes.
Even some of the names and titles for God Himself are plural, implying more than one. So it's a lot more complicated than how you have described.

Answer 10

Ok, Shure..alrighty then.
