Some people say, “I’m pretty sure I’ve been baptized in
Jesus name…”
If there is any uncertainty as to whether or not the name of
Jesus was called over you in water baptism by immersion, this is a reason to
get re-baptized in Jesus name.
It is by baptism in Jesus name that our sins are remitted.
If we were not baptized in Jesus name, our sins have not been remitted– we have
not applied the blood of Jesus to our life.
Some say, “The pastor that baptized me did everything in
Jesus name. I’m sure he baptized in Jesus name as well”. This is not
necessarily true. I once asked a pastor if he baptized in Jesus name. He said,
“We do everything in the name of Jesus.” I asked again, “Do you baptize in
Jesus name?” His answer, “We do everything in the name of Jesus EXCEPT baptize
in the name of Jesus.”
Find a pastor that believes, preaches, and obeys Acts 2:38,
and you will find a pastor that baptizes in Jesus name.
"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
"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is
none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." -
Acts 4:12
Don’t risk your salvation to uncertainty. It is Biblical to
be re-baptized in the name of Jesus if you know you weren’t baptized in Jesus
name. (Such as being baptized in TITLES - “Father, Son, and Holy Ghost” instead
of the NAME – “JESUS”) If you are not certain how you were baptized, be SURE of
this most important decision in your life!! Be RE-BAPTIZED in JESUS name!!
"And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye
baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. Then said Paul, John verily
baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should
believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. When they
heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. And when Paul had
laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with
tongues, and prophesied." - Acts 19:3-6
