Baptism in the name of JESUS CHRIST!

Our Lord Jesus Christ stayed on earth for almost 33 years teaching His disciples about the Kingdom of God and how could we become one His children and inherit everlasting life. Jesus Christ suffered and died for us but was raised from the dead and before He ascended to Heaven, this is what He told to His apostles, “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, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." (Matthew 28:19-20)


Now, let’s find out the fulfillment of this, when the day of the Pentecost came all the apostles are in one place and the Holy Spirit of God came all upon them and Peter which is also full of the Holy Spirit reminded the crowd what’s written on the Scriptures and Jesus crucifixion and resurrection and when the people understand those things, they asked what they should do and this was what Peter said, "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.” (Act 2:38). This is the fulfillment of Matthew 28:19. We can’t say that Peter contradicts God’s commandment for the keys of the kingdom of heaven was given to him (Matthew 16:18-19).


On the scriptures who were baptized in the name of JESUS CHRIST!


  1. Acts 2:41 (three thousand)
  2. Acts 8:12 -17 (Simon and others)
  3. Acts 8:26-38 (eunuch)
  4. Acts 9:17-18 (Saul)
  5. Acts 10:1-48 (Cornelius and his household)
  6. Acts 16:13-15 (Lydia and her household)
  7. Acts 16:29-33 (jailer and his family)
  8. Acts 18:8 (Crispus and his household)
  9. Acts 19:1-7 (twelve believers at Corinth)


None from the Bible where you can read that the apostles baptized those who accept the word of God using “the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit” but instead “in the NAME OF JESUS CHRIST” because that’s the name Jesus referring to in Matthew 28:19. I hope this clears the one of the most controversies topic in the Holy Scriptures, the true baptism.

many of oneness preachers says that no one is baptized in the name of the Father and holy spirit but only in the name of Christ, but they also said in thier doctrine that "the FATHER,SON and HOLY SPIRIT are ONE" how come that no one is baptized in the name of the FATHER AND THE HOLY SPIRIT? According to the verse you sited."MATTHEW 28:19-20

Kapatid, hindi ako lubusang naniniwala sa mga paliwanag mo at lalo akong naguguluhan, pero sa ibang banda may tama ka, kaya lang hindi mo lang na-expound or naintindihan ang nabasa mong talata sa biblya.

Ipapaalala ko lang muna sa iyo na kailan man hindi magkakasalungat ang mga sinalita ng Diyos sa banal na kasulatan, bagkos pinapa-saliksik ng panginoon ang mga salita niya.

Una iyong nabanggit mo na Matthew 28:19-20, ay iyon mismo ang sinabi ng panginoong Hesu Kristo na “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, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Iyan mismo ang utos ng Panginoong Hesu Kristo.

Ngayon naman dun sa sinusunod niyo na aral na dapat na gamitin ay Act 2:38 "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.” ay wala tayong pagtatalo dito dahil si Apostol Pedro ay binabanggit lang niya ang "UTOS" ni Kristo na nasa Matthew 28:19-20.

Kasi kapatid kapag ang binanggit mo lang sa pagbabautismo ay ang pangalan ni Hesu Kristo; niwawalang saysay mo ang kanyang mismong turo na nasa Matthew 28:19-20.

Huwag ka sanang magalit kapatid bagkos pag-aralan mong mabuti at pagsikapang maunawaan ang aral ng ating Panginoong Hesu Kristo.

Ako'y umaasa kapatid na sana mapasayo ang Espiritu ng Diyos upang sa ganun ay malawakan mo ang iyong kaalaman ukol sa salita ng ating Panginoong Hesus Kristo.

You mean you can understand what you are saying according to the Bible? Imposible, if you are not in the Church of God its far from reality. Mar 4:11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: are you saying you are one of yhose? The Doctrine of ONENESS is againts Christ Doctrine, how come? Better Watch fisrt the Debate in Between Oneness by Mr, Jeffrey del Mundo and Bro Eli Soriano to probe who is in God, Bec God says into the member of his church,Luk 21:13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
Luk 21:14 Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:
Luk 21:15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. If you want to know where are you just watch and search your self.2Co 13:5 Siyasatin ninyo ang inyong sarili, kung kayo'y nangasa pananampalataya; subukin ninyo ang inyong sarili. Hindi baga ninyo nalalaman sa ganang inyong sarili, na si Jesucristo ay nasa inyo? maliban na nga kung kayo'y itinakuwil na. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=debate+jeffrey+del+mundo&search_type=&aq=f
