Jesus told the Disciples/Apostles to baptized in the singular name of the Father, Son, And Holy Spirit.Excuse me? The command that Christ Himself gave to baptize in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit has been posted already. It's scripture. Deal with it. How you think the Didache conflicts with that when it uses the exact same words is beyond me. There is no "doctrines of men" being pushed here.
Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Yet the Apostles did not use the Trinitarian formula of baptizing. Do you think that the Apostle blatantly disobeyed Jesus, misunderstood what He was saying, or knew that the singular name of the Father, Son and holy Spirit was Jesus?
This is how the Original Church in Acts baptized people, any deviation from the way the Apostles baptized is incorrect.
Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Acts 8:12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
Acts 8 :16 For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Acts 10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
Acts 19:5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
The didache oppose scripture because it deviates from the way the Church of the Apostles baptized their converts which is in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that name is a singular name, that singular name is Jesus. The Trinitarian formula of Baptism in unbiblical at best.
