Thirty some years ago we attended a UPCI church in IL, and the pastor always used similar wording when he baptized people. He was a good pastor and Bible teacher ; a few books/booklets he wrote were published at Hazelwood;
so I just attributed it to him...a great man but not affected by UPCI peer pressure......and we were near St Louis. He had a unique ministry.
