Re: Observations at a Contemporary Baptist Church
My point is that we've codified it into meaning we have to speak the name of Jesus over a candidate. I can see that we baptize "in the name of Jesus Christ", "in the name of the Lord", or "in the name of the Lord Jesus", meaning in his authority according to his command. However, I'm curious as to where we read about a minister of the Gospel verbally speaking the name of Jesus like a formula over a candidate being baptized?
