Does Acts 2:38 fulfill or contradict Matt 28:19?

Answer 1

NO.

Acts 2:38
"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."

Matthew 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:"

John 4:24. "There are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost, and these three are ONE."

With these verses you can see that they do not contradict each other since the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost is Jesus.

Answer 2

Acts 2:38 fulfilled Matt 28:19

Answer 3

(Acts 2:38)
It does not fulfill or contradict Mathew 28:19, Rather it supports the fact that Jesus commanded his followers to do what Mathew 28:19. said and his followers are still doing this in our day. If you read verse Acts 2:39, you will see that its God who is doing the directing. He also makes his plans for all to see if they are truly seeking. The best way a person can learn what God wants him or her to learn is ask questions and allow his word to be the finial authority. John 17:3 says we should take in knowledge, this doesn't mean the first time you read a scripture that you will understand it correctly, it requires study and other scriptural thoughts to see it correctly. 2 Timothy 3:16

Answer 4

Acts 2:38 "I am, too," the commander muttered, "and it cost me plenty!""But I am a citizen by birth!"

Matt 28:19 Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
-------

I guess I don't understand your question.

In Acts 2:38 Paul is letting the commander know that he is a Roman citizen because he was born in Rome. And the commander is letting Paul know that he had to pay his way into becoming a citizen of Rome.

In Matt 28:19 The Lord is telling them to go out to all the nations and make them disciples.

Where is the contradiction?

God Bless You!

Answer 5

NO!
Acts 2:27-35; Jesus at God's right hand, they know who God is, and God is the God and Father of Jesus , John 20:17; they know that by the spirit of God the prophets were holy.
What they are now being told is about Jesus, the Messiah, the son of God the Father of Jesus and of all, Jesus is the savior of the world, he has come, he has ascended John 3:13-17; and is at God's right hand, if they except him, they have the Father, the son and the holy spirit, this makes their baptism complete.
But most did not except Jesus, I guess they were ignorant of the math that Daniel gives for the first coming of Jesus. Dan.9:24-27; Solomon dies yr 3069, 1413 yrs after flood, 997 before Christ, so easy to figure, they are with out excuse. Solomon has been dead 391 years when Judah kings ended.
Yr 3460, 606 before Christ [ O. T. done 443 before Christ ].
HISTORY REPEATS:
The world after Jesus is ignorant of the fact that Daniel gives all but the day and hour of the second coming of Jesus.
At 2007 after Christ, and as always, the bible is the most important thing, now in circulation in the world 396 years for people to know the time and know if they will be alive at his second coming. 1Thes.5:1-9,21;

Answer 6

Contradicts, but that's a bad thing, so it fulfills. That's why it's called "apologetics". It's the polite way of saying that the book was written by a bunch of Iron age fanatics whose world view hardly extend beyond their own horizon and rewritten by middle age fanatics locked behind monastery walls and between them they still couldn't smooth out the contradictions.

For what it's worth, I love the "don't even need to look it up" response. That just captures the fanatic definition much better than anything I could ever write.

Answer 7

Keep in mind that the "Catholics"had control of scriptures for many years. The Messiah YAHOSHUA said He came in His fathers name. Acts 4:12 says there is only one name that contains salvation. That name is "YHVH is salvation" which is the name of the Messiah. I long wondered obout Matt 28:19. It says (in most translations, I don't speak Hebrew, nor do we have the original Hebrew of this verse) The name (singular) of the Father Son and Spirit.

Answer 8

38Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

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

To me, they basically say the same thing. Matthew 28:19 is a message to the Apostles that they were to go forth and baptize. They were, in essence, the first Christian ministers.

And, yes, there ARE contradictions in the Bible. Jesus refuted many of the OT teachings in his own teachings.

Answer 9

There's many contradictions, but this example is not a good one.

Answer 10

Fulfill. "In the name of Jesus" is an olde English way of saying "by the power of Jesus" - in other words...to do what Jesus taught by His words...which is to Baptize in the name of the Trinity.
