Olga, yes Acts 2:38 is correct. Matthew 28:19 does say "in the name of". That name is Jesus. Test we see not one person was water baptized in the book of Acts in titles. And in John 3:3-5 Jesus said water & the Spirit are needed to enter into the kingdom of God. So many don't even think water baptism is needed when it's clearly all thru the New Testament bible. So many scriptures. Thank you for obeying the Lord Jesus. Blessings to you
not talking about your nature birth/1st birth, but a second birth, which is spiritual, according to his will. The book of Acts is where the birth of New Testament/Jesus church begins, the Lord's disciples show how to do this, are first to obey this: Peter preached this first message to the Jews, later to all/non Jews.
Acts 2: 38: Repent, be baptized every one of you in
the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your
sins(blood Jesus shed is applied/ Hebrews 9:22), and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
All books after Acts are written to the churches that are already born again, as Paul writes:
When Christ answered Nicodemus about being born again, He told him that a man must be born of water and Spirit to enter the kingdom of heaven. Jesus qualifies this by saying that which is flesh or of the earth which is water is flesh. And, that which is born of Spirit is Spirit or from above heaven.
1 John 5: 6-8. Jesus came by water and blood. We are covered by His blood. When the soldier pierced Jesus's side out came blood and water. Water proves that Jesus was truly the Son of Man from earth. That's why we are to test the Spirits to see if they believe that Christ came in the flesh or believe that He was born of earth. We that believe this are of the Spirit of Christ. Those that do not believe this are of the Spirit of the anti-Christ and there are many.
Christ says He has a baptism to baptize you with. For He comes to baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with Fire.
