I was preaching at a Church one time and the Pastor asked me to baptize a couple of new converts, and I said the above, and he had me to rebaptize them without saying "that you may receive the Holy Ghost."
why not say what petrer said in the bible? "and ye SHALL recieve the GIFT of the holy Ghost."
