Does The Baptizor Impute The Name Of Jesus?
Must the baptizor say "Jesus" during baptism for the baptizee to be baptized in Jesus' name? In other words, does the baptizor impute the name of Jesus to the baptizee?

Re: Does The Baptizor Impute The Name Of Jesus?
If to be baptised in someone's name requires or means that the person performing the baptism actually invoke that someone's name, then obviously yes.
If not, then perhaps no. Although, if one is supposed to be baptised in someone's name, but the person performing the baptism says something else, with intention to mean something and someone else, then there's a bit of a quandry, isn't there? For then the baptism is intentionally something other than what was supposed to happen... which makes it not a proper baptism...eh?

Impute
1 : to lay the responsibility or blame for often falsely or unjustly
2 : to credit to a person or a cause : attribute <our vices as well as our virtues have been imputed to bodily derangement

No, he does not. Baptism is more about submitting to the authority of the One bearing the name than the actual vocalization. Though it makes much more sense to vocalize the name IMO.
But of course this does not change the fact that baptism in most Evangelical churches is not taught correctly in that they teach it is simply some post new birth act of worship or obedience. Scripture teaches that baptism and repentance are linked. It's when you decide to die that you might live.It's the first step to becoming a disciple.
