I have never gone to a silent baptism where they didn't tell the one being baptized by the confession of your faith. As long as I can remember they were instructed to confess the name of Jesus. UPCI, ALJC, Spanish veil wearers, Brazilian and Haitian congregations all instructing the one being baptized to call on the name of JESUS. Never been to a baptism with someone just quietly going under.
