When we water baptize, we are to OBEY the command of Jesus NOT
baptize by repeating His command.
"And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power
is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all
nations, baptizing them in the NAME of the Father, and of the Son, and of the
Holy Ghost:" - Matthew 28:18-19 KJV
Jesus said, to baptize in the NAME.
What is the NAME of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost?
JESUS.
His disciples understood Jesus and OBEYED Him: they baptized
in the NAME of JESUS.
"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 2:38 KJV
(The word “NAME” emphasized):
"And that repentance and remission of sins should be
preached in his NAME among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem." - Luke
24:47 KJV (See Acts 2:38)
"Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of
Israel, that by the NAME of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom
God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you
whole. ... Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other NAME
under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." - Acts 4:10, 12
KJV
"And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call
his NAME JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins." - Matthew
1:21 KJV
"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 8:12 KJV

NAME whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins." - Acts

are called?" - James 2:7 KJV
