Answer
to the question:
How many Beings are we
to baptize in the name of?
Answer. The apostles baptized
in the name of Jesus alone.
Acts 2:38 And Peter
said to them, "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the
name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you
shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."
Acts 10:48 And he commanded
them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they
asked him to remain for some days.
Acts 19:5 On hearing
this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
In fact,
there is no record in the Bible of anyone baptizing in any other name.
But what of the "Great Commission"
text found in Matthew 28:19? (See The
Great Commission text.)
