Joel!! This guy visited our church and I don't know why they asked him to testify!
He said, "Well, I've been baptized three times. One time in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Second time in Jesus name and the third time I took it upon myself and jumped in the creek."

Water baptism in Jesus name remits sins or washes your sins away. Acts 22:16:And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized,and wash away thy sins,calling on the name of the Lord.

Joel, you're a trip!
John 3:16 "John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:"
I'm pretty sure they didn't line up and say, "One for the money, two for the show, three to get ready and four to goooooooo".....jump, splash.....
You're a trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jesus set the example by having John baptize Him. He didn't go jump in the river.

Right. I can't quite see Him hiking up his robe, running with sand spitting out behind Him and then hearing a big - SPLASH! Somehow that can't work for me.

If someone was to lead you to the water and call on the name of the Lord with you and then you went under the water,that wouldn't be them baptizing you ? Did anyone here even call on the name of the Lord as the scripture teaches ?

He baptized with water by leading them to the water.You really think it's ok for men to touch womens waist when baptizing ? I don't think so.Preachers who put their hands on womens waists is the real trip.
