Baptise in the name of?

[tonychanyt]

1 Corinthians 10:

2 They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea.

Moses was God’s representative under the Law. The Israelites were symbolically baptized under his leadership.

For Christians, we have a different leader, Matthew 28:

19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

Note the singular noun name. In the name of X means in the authority of X.

Acts 2:

38 Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Acts 10:

48 So he ordered that they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked Peter to stay with them for a few days.

Acts 19:

5 On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

Romans 6:

3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

Galatians 3:

27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

Any one of these formulas will do. It is not mouthing the formula that works. It has to do with the repentant heart of the believer. He needs to admit Jesus as Lord and Savior, regardless of the formula.
