Christian leaders do not use, even refuse to use, the same discipleship doctrine as the sent Apostles used for newly converted disciples in Yahshua. Yahshua commanded the
Apostles to immerse in "the name of" the Father, etc..

Matt 28:19-20 Go ye therefore, and \b{teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of} the Father, and of the Son, and of the Set Apart Spirit: [20] \b{Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you}: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.

Teaching and obeying the Great Commission is what builds up and adds believers to and for the kingdom to come. The key words in the Great Commission are as follows:

1. \b{Teach all nations}
2. Immersing them in the name of} the Father, and of the Son, and of the Set Apart Spirit:
3. 20 \b{Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you}

One of the most important words of Yahshua in the Great Commission is as follows:

\b{Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you}

The believers in Yahshua are to guard, keep, hold fast, watch and serve the teachings that the Apostles carried out.

NT:5083-Observe
tereo (tay-reh'-o); from teros (a watch; perhaps akin to NT:2334); to guard
(from loss or injury, properly, by keeping the eye upon.

KJV-hold fast, keep (-er), (pre-, re-) serve, watch.

The meaning of "Observe" is applied as: We as new believers are "to guard" from loss or injury, properly, by keeping the eye upon what teachings Yahshua gave his Apostles.

The Christian leaders have not guarded, kept, held fast, watched or served the teachings that the Apostles carried out. In fact, they reject the same teachings of the Great Commission that was carried out by the Apostles, which have created a false gospel and false disciples, complete with alternative immersion and alternative names for YHWH and His Son. {This article is about immersion. See other articles about the name J-sus and Lord}


The Apostles obeyed the commandments of Yahshua, and taught new believers to be
immersed in the name of Yahshua. Yahshua did not Command his Apostles, "Teach
J-sus for Yahshua, teach LORD for YHWH and teach GOD {Gawd} for Elohim." Yahshua did not Command his Apostles, "Teach immersion saying, I baptize thee in the name of the Father, in the Son, in the Holy Ghost." Yahshua did not Command his
Apostles, "Reject the laws of YHWH for your traditions because you are saved by grace." Yahshua did not Command his Apostles, "Teach, Just believe in me and you
will be Saved." Yahshua did not Command his Apostles, "Teach them the, Just believe and confess J-sus," Commission. Yahshua did not Command his Apostles, "Teach that no one needs to do anything for their Salvation."

Disciples in the Great Commission are made new creatures through the teachings of the Apostles who carried out the words of Yahshua. Disciples in the Great Commission are not made through the false teachings of Christian leaders who reject the very teachings of Yahshua. How have they rejected the teachings of Yahshua? Because they reject the teachings of how the Apostles carried out the Great Commission, which was according to the words of Yahshua.

When the Apostles were confronted with sinners who wanted to receive salvation, the sinners asked, "What must we do?" The Apostles' teachings were, repent and call on and use the name of the Savior in immersion. Christian leaders do not!

Acts 2:37: Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?

Acts 2:38-42: Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be immersed every one of you in the name of Yahshua HaMasiach "for the remission of sins," and ye shall receive the gift of the Set Apart Spirit.

Acts 2: 41 Then they that gladly received his word were immersed: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

When Christian leaders are confronted with sinners who ask, "What must we do to receive salvation?" the Christian leaders teach a, "Just believe and Confess J-sus," commission. They use and teach the words out of a letter written to the Romans, who were believers and had already been immersed in the name of Yahshua. Yet, when sinners heard the words of Philip {who also taught the Apostles' doctrine} concerning the name of Yahshua, they were immersed.

Acts 8:12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things \b{concerning the kingdom of Elohim and the name of Yahshua HaMasiach}, they were immersed, both men and women.

Because the eunuch heard the same gospel that the Apostles taught. He wanted to get immersed as soon as he saw water.

Acts 8:36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be immersed?

Acts 8:38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he immersed him.

Yet the doctrine of Christian leaders teach that, it does not matter when, or even if, you get immersed in the name of Yahshua, however Paul knew the need for immersion as soon as he could see.

Acts 9:18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was immersed.


Acts 10:47-48 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be immersed, which have received the Set Apart Spirit as well as we? [48] And he commanded them to be immersed in the name of Yahshua. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.

When anyone believed the Gospel spoken by the Apostles, they were immersed:

Acts 16:15 And when she was immersed, and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Master, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained us.

Acts 18:8 And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Master with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were immersed.

As you can see from scripture, sinners who believed the Gospel spoken by the sent Apostles, were immersed in the name of their Savior when they believed. What was so important about immersion, that all believers had to be immersed when they heard the words of the Apostles doctrine? We will answer this question with scripture in a bit!

Follow Paul'sTeachings

Most Christian leaders follow Paul's teachings much more than they do anyone else. However, they reject Paul's very teaching of the Great Commission! Not only did Paul teach about immersion, he also taught the importance of correct immersion. There were certain disciples who believed but they still needed to be immersed in the name of Yahshua.

Acts 19:1-5 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,

2] He said unto them, Have ye received the Set Apart Spirit since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Set Apart Spirit.

3] And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye immersed? And they said, Unto John's baptism.

4] Then said Paul, John verily immersed with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should
come after him, that is, on Messiah Yahshua.

5] When they heard this, they were immersed in the name of Yahshua.

The very reason why ALL new believers must be immersed in the name of Yahshua, is to assure everyone receives the Spirit of YHWH.

Wash away thy sins, calling on the name of Yahshua. His name in immersion, washes away sins, is what the Apostle proclaims!

Acts 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be immersed, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of Yahshua.

As you can see from the scripture, new believers were commanded to be immersed, in the name of Yahshua, when they believed the Gospel spoken by the Apostles. However, Christian leaders do not teach the same doctrine as given by Yahshua to his Apostles. When and if they do decide to immerse one of their disciples, who came through the "Just
believe and Confess" commission, they are baptized with the following said over them; "I baptize you in the name of the "Father, of the Son, of the Holy Ghost." They refuse to use the name that the Apostles used in immersion. The trinity doctrine baptism is not scriptural and has made disciples of man's error. Yahshua did not Command his Apostles, "Teach immersion saying, "I baptize thee in the name of the Father, in the Son, in
the Holy Ghost."

When Christian leaders are confronted about using the phrase: . "I baptize the in the name of the "Father, of the Son, of the Holy Ghost, and are told they need to immerse in the name of Yahshua according to the Apostles doctrine, they say, "Baptism does not Save" and "Nor does it Matter" Yet they are supposed to be teachers who follow the Apostles' doctrine. Repentance alone, does not save, believe alone does not saved, obeying alone does not save, faith alone does not save, baptism alone does not save, grace alone does not save, the name Yahshua alone does not save, however, if you have completed all of these steps then you are a disciple of the Great Commission.

Another excuse given when Christian leaders are confronted about immersing believers in the name of Yahshua like the Apostles did, is they think you're teaching against the trinity doctrine and they try to associate you with a J-sus only group. The J-sus only groups baptize in the name of J-sus only and do not use the phrase, "I baptize you in the
name of the "Father, of the Son, of the Holy Ghost." Well I have news for these Christian leaders who would rather hold to their traditions, instead of the doctrine of the sent ones. According to Christian leaders, the Apostles would also be teaching against a trinity, because they immersed into the name of Yahshua only.




Another excuse given when Christian leaders are confronted about immersion believers in the name of Yahshua like the Apostles did, {is} They say: "The name means the authority of" We are baptizing in the Authority of the "Father, of the Son, of the Holy Ghost.

Again there is not scripture for this teaching. Yahshua did not teach his Apostles to baptize in the Authority of the "Father, of the Son, of the Holy Ghost.

Nor did Yahshua or his Apostles say: " Baptize them by calling on the Authority of the "Father, of the Son, of the Holy Ghost

Nor does it say: They were baptized in the Authority of the "Father, of the Son, of the Holy Ghost.

Nor does it say: Wash away thy sins calling on the Authority of the "Father, of the Son, of the Holy Ghost

The scripture very clearly teaches believers to use and call on the name "Yahshsua" in immersion for the forgiveness of sins. The teaching of Christian leaders is based on foundation of a commission of their own. They have taught a different path than what Yahshua chose his disciple to carry out and teach. Yahshua strictly forbids climbing up another way!

John 10:1 1Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

We must enter in through the sheepfold. The sheepfold began when the Apostles first began to preach and say "Repent and be immersed in the name of Yahshua, for the forgiveness of your sins". The birth of the sheepfold has already begun and is based on the foundation of the Apostles. The path to the sheepfold door, has already been established by the early sheep, who are waiting for us to take the same path! Please follow the same way!

The Assembly of Yahshua is built on the Apostles and Prophets, Yahshua being the chief corner stone.

Eph 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Yahshua Messiah himself being the chief corner stone;


Why should we follow the teachings of the Apostles {Sent ones}

Matt 7:24-27 Therefore \b{whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them}, I will liken him unto \b{a wise man, which built his house upon a rock}: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26 And \b{every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not}, shall be likened unto \b{a foolish man, which built his house} upon the sand: 27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

Yahshua said that those who hear and obey his words are liken to a wise man how built his house on a rock. The words that Yahshua spoke and taught to his sent ones was a path to the door of the sheepfold, and his kingdom. His words of the path to salvation continued through the teachings of his chosen. Apostles.

The Christian leaders do not teach or follow the same teachings of the Great Commission to its members. They do not teach the same path as what all other believers followed the day they believed the gospel spoken by the Apostles. Therefore the baptism through the teachings of Christianity is void, and made of none effect. Why? Because the Christian leaders, have made disciples of error, by not follow the path that was original laid by the foundation of the Apostles. The Christian leaders are teaching another, name and another way of salvation apart from the teachings of the Apostles.

We must use, hear and teach the words of one who is sent by YHWH, to preach the Gospel in order for us or others to receive salvation. The truth of the Gospel has to be taught to us, before we can receive salvation. We can find in the scriptures the teachings, of those who were sent. Christian leaders do not teach the same message as those who were sent.

Rom 10:13-15 For whosoever \b{shall call upon the name of Yahshua} shall be saved. 14 \b{How then shall they call} on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and \b{how shall they hear without a preacher?}15 \And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

Christian leaders do not teach the same message as those who were sent. Christian leaders do not teach believers to call on the name Yahshua when immersed. The Christian leaders just say the phrase of the Great Commission. Therefore the teachings of Christianity have created a false gospel, false disciples, complete with alternative immersion and alternative names for YHWH and His Son.

Those who have come through the doctrine of Christianity, need to be immersed again according to the sent Apostles. Another major reason why we need to follow, the doctrine of the sent ones {Apostles}is as follows: Christianity preaches a different name, than what people of all languages heard from the Apostles.

Yes, we all who believe in Yahshua must follow the Apostles doctrine, {Sent ones} and call on the name "Yahshua" in immersion for the forgiveness of our sins.

If the one who is assisting in immersion is using a different name than the one being baptized, then we have a problem.

Col 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of Yahshua, giving thanks to Elohim and the Father by him.

What we must consider is what does immersion into the name of Yahshua really do for a believer. We need to put all the pieces of the puzzle together to see the big picture.

What does immersion do for us?

1. Dead to sin=no-lawbreaking\=repentance
2. Immersed into his death
3. Spiritual and physical burial in the likeness of his death.
4. Immersion in his name grants forgiveness of sins.

[1].Repentance is turning away from sin and its penalty=immersed to be dead from sin.

Rom 6:1-2 What shall we say then? \b{Shall we continue in sin}, that grace may abound?

Shall we continue in sin? No we have repented} 2 Elohim forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? {HOW?= Know ye not? Romans 6:3 }

[2]. Immersed into his death

Rom 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were immersed into Yahshua, were immersed into his death?

[3] Spiritual and physical burial in the likeness of his death.

Being buried with him is a spiritual and a physical thing. Yahshua being raised from six feet under, was a spiritual and a physical application. The same needs to be applied to our lives. The scripture shows how this is done in faith. It's a good thing that Yahshua did not choose for us to be immersed six feet under a couple thousand pounds of earth. Do you know how long it would take to raise {dig} us up? LOL! We would be dead because we could not survive in such an element. When some one is immersed according to scripture he or she is planted in the likeness of the death of Yahshua.

Rom 6:4 Therefore we are buried with him by immersion into death: that like as Messiah was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Rom 6:5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

Yahshua was planted {buried} in an element which no human could survive. The key word in the scripture above is "Likeness". Instead of 2000 pounds of earth, we are immersed in an element {water} in which we cannot survive either. This type of immersion is a physical likeness {burial} of his death. Then we are raised up by the body of Messiah to walk in the newness of life, as Yahshua was raised up by the Spirit.

[4] Immersion in his name grants forgiveness of sins.

Acts 10:43 To him give all the prophets witness, that \b{through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins}.

Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be immersed every one of you in the \b{name of Yahshua Masiach for the remission of sins}, and ye shall receive the gift of the Set Apart Spirit.

Acts 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be immersed, and \b{wash away thy sins, calling on the name of Yahshua}.

John 20:31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Yahshua is the Messiah, the Son of Elohim; and that believing ye might have life through his name}.

Immersion brings about forgiveness for the new creature in YHWH. Water immersion in his name competes the new birth of the body {Born again} by going through a likeness of his death burial and resurrection The immersion of the spirit is being born of his spirit. This is the very reason why Yahshua said….

John 3:5 Yahshua answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of Elohim.

Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

May Yahshua bless you with His Truth!

Shalom
