Well Technically Speaking....

[n david]

When an individual is baptized, is it the name, titles, or the authority which matters? I'll explain...Mt 28:19 "baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost." Luke 24:47 "that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name..."

Does speaking the titles over someone at baptism cover the authority which comes in the name?

I believe in baptism in Jesus name; I was baptized that way, and I recommend everyone be baptized that way. However, I struggle with condemning someone to hell for being baptized under the titles.

Nobody's going to hell because of a man who says the 'wrong' words over them at baptism. The bible teaches no such thing.
