MOST POWERFUL VERSE Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of JESUS and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost

Here Peter was baptizing in the name of Jesus, the Son of God it does not matter how one gets baptized. Weather it be in the name of the Father and the Son and Holy Ghost or in Jesus name or baptized unto Jesus' death Romans 6:3-4 it don't matter it is all bible. Christanity is loaded with confusion because they are not in Christ but of the world of the devil as all sin is of the devil period.

It matters how you are baptised, Jesus Christ commanded "baptizing in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost". That name is the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus said that He came in His Father's (Jesus Christ) and that is the name to be baptized in. Also 10Be 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. 12Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

When Jesus died on the cross the veil was rent from top to bottom signifying that each man could go before God to repent for his own sins. Peter whom Jesus had given the keys to the kingdom stoop up on the day of Pentecost and declared the NEW baptism which was used throughout the rest of the Bible as the way to be saved. This is not my opinion, it is the Word of God.

Revelation 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;
Peter was given the same keys as you and I today, Faith in his name (JESUS) the doors are opened and shut. Like Daniel in the den of lions an angel shut the lions mouth.
Acts 3:16 And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

If it doesn't matter then why not just sacrifice a lamb instead of being baptized? There is a problem with some who think any old way will do. There was a time when people sacrificed animals. Then that was done away with when a priest took the peoples sins before God. Then they priests started dying behind the veil because they were unclean.
