How can ANYONE refer to the Name that is above every name as MAGIC or MYSTICAL and say they are walking in the Spirit? Look at this verse...
Phil 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
I heard a man once call the Name of Jesus "our little magical formula" in a water baptism debate(he was baptist). This sent cold chills down my spine!!!
You are essentially saying the same thing, yet you are Pentecostal. Sorry bro., calling the name of my savior "magic" or "incantation" or "mystical" or any other derogatory term is not a good position for a Christian to take.

Wrong again, Sean. I'm not calling it "
magical or mystical" and continuing to say that I am will not change the facts. Rather I am saying that is
you who are
treating his name as if though it was magical or mystical because you believe that vocalizing it over someone you are baptizing mysteriously takes away their sins.
And what does Phil. 2:10 have to do with this? That is a prophetic reference to the day Jehovah said every knee would bow and every tongue would bow to
him. This will be fulfilled when every knee bows at the judgment to Jesus Christ, in whom dwells all the fullness of the Godhead.
Sean, I really encourage to do a study on the significance of the name of Jesus and it's use in prayer, baptizing, etc.
