The Catholic Church accepts baptisms that follow the command of Jesus Christ as recorded in Matthew 28:19: \n \nGo, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit.\n\nThus the Trinitarian baptismal formula:\n\n[name], I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."  \n\nWith love in Christ.

As always, the Scriptures NEVER prove the trinity and ALWAYS prove that Jesus and Jehovah are distinct persons. The truth doesn't need a lot of explaining beyond what the Scriptures plainly teach.\n\n(Matthew 1:23, RS) Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and *HIS NAME* shall be called Emmanuel’ (which means, God with us).\n\n(Luke 1:32, RS) He will be great, and will be called the *SON* of the Most High. [emphasis added]\n\n(Luke 1:35, RS) the child to be born will be called holy, the *SON* of God.\n\n(John 10:36, RS) [Jesus] said, `I am the *SON* of God'\n\n(John 3:17, RS) God sent the *SON* into the world\n\n(Colossians 1:15) the firstborn of all creation\n\n(Mark 10:18) Jesus said to him: 'Why do you call me good? Nobody is good, except one, God.\n\n(Revelation 3:14) the Amen says, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation by God\n\n(Philippians 2:5-6) Christ Jesus, who, although he was existing in God's form, gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God\n\n(John 8:42) Neither have I come of my own initiative at all, but that One sent me forth\n\n(John 12:49) I have not spoken out of my own impulse, but the Father himself who sent me has given me a commandment as to what to tell and what to speak\n\n(John 14:28) I am going my way to the Father, because the Father is greater than I am\n\n(1 Corinthians 15:28) But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him\n\n(Matthew 20:23) this sitting down at my right hand and at my left is not mine to give, but it belongs to those for whom it has been prepared by my Father\n\n(1 Corinthians 11:3) I want you to know that the head of every man is the Christ; ...in turn the head of the Christ is God\n\n(John 20:17) I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.\n\n(Deuteronomy 6:4) Jehovah our God is one Jehovah\n\n(1 Corinthians 8:4-6) There is no God but one. For even though there are those who are called "gods," whether in heaven or on earth, just as there are many "gods" and many "lords," there is actually to us one God the Father, out of whom all things are, and we for him\n\nThanks again for an opportunity to share what the bible actually says about the distinct persons of Jesus Christ the Son and Jehovah God the Father!\n\nLearn more!\nhttp://watchtower.org/e/ti/\nhttp://watchtower.org/e/20050422/article_02.htm\nhttp://watchtower.org/e/pr/article_04.htm

According to the Bible, Jesus is the ONLY BEGOTTEN Son of God. We are God's children thrugh adoption, as it were, not by being begotten.

Jesus was baptized by St. John the Baptist so He was a Chritian.

This is a tradition of man and not Biblical based as the only ones who are candidates for baptism are born again believers. The act of Baptism cant save any one or wash away original sin as some claim as only the blood of Christ can do both.The water birth mentioned in John Ch. 3 is in fact our physical birth and not baptism.

Matthew 27:43. Read and Study this. Jesus is the Son of God. The Son of God  IS  synonomous with "The Word"  This  is  what  The Son of God means, it means "The Word" Jn 1:1\n\n   AND  Jesus  did  say,  "Before  Abraham  existed,  " I  AM ' !"\n \n"I  AM"  was the name God/YHWH  gave to Moses to give to God's people.  When Moses asked God,    God/YHWH  Said  to \nMoses, tell  My people  that  "I AM"  has  sent  you.\n  \n\nBefore  Abraham existed, Jesus existed with His Father, YHWH\nas "THE  WORD".  which  became flesh.  Jesus is  "I AM".\n\n\nYou  can  choose  to believe  the old testament (The Tanak=Scriptures of the Jews),  and the new testament, &  the words of Jesus, both which speak only the Truth,   or  you  can  choose to reject it.\n\nP.S -  Jesus is not an image, God did not 'create' an image of Himself,  Jesus  is the  incarnation  of  God.\n\n"In the beginning was "The Word" and "The Word" was with God, and "The Word" was God.    And  "The Word" was made flesh, was incarnated, and dwelt amoung mankind and mankind beheld His Glory.   "The Word" that became flesh, was given the name Jesus, Immanuel which means "God With us"\n\nI have studied in hundreds of texts, Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic.  And well as many many Hebrew-Greek Concordances of the Bible, Studied the History of the Bible and the History of the Christian Church.  Over 40 years of studying.\nI do not claim perfection.\n\nBut the incarnation is God becoming flesh,  "The Word" becoming flesh,  Jesus,  is  NO  doubt the Truth !!\nJesus, in His own words said He is the Great "I AM"\nAnd many Apostles were put to death because of this strong unwavering belief, including the Apostle Paul.\n\nIt is your choice to believe the Truth or not.\n\nEvery human being, including yourself has  Free Will !!

Friend, the trinity doctine will always dis-agreed with there is only One God, They try to make Jesus God, when they do that then they are saying God Died. I was once myself a trinity when I first got saved in 1970, The Godhead is the very first thing God revealed to me. If those Trinity believers, can prove that anyone in the bible were ever baptized in the TITLES of the father, son, & holy ghost, I would like to see it, Everyone that was baptized was Baptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Isn't Jesus the SON of God?

"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\n \nNotice it says Peter told them to be baptized "in the name of Jesus Christ."  This is right after holy spirit was given on the Day of Pentecost, ten days after Jesus ascended into heaven. \n\n\n"And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days." Acts 10:48\n \n\nNotice that Peter commanded the household of Cornelius "to be baptized in the name of the Lord."  Apparently, no one's reminded him what Jesus said, since Acts 2. \n\n\n"When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus." Acts 19:5\n \nThese were the believers in Ephesus.  Notice it says, "they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus." \n\n\n"For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Galatians 3:27\n\nNotice this is talking to those of us who "have been baptized into Christ". \n\nAccording to the evidence I've check and gathered, it's probable that Jesus and the original Matthew 28:18-20" really said, \n\nAll authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.  Go, therefore, disciple all the nations in my name, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you.  And lo, I am with you all the days until the completion of the age. \n\nIt appears that Jesus wasn't talking about baptizing at all, but rather, making disciples of all the nations in his name.\n\nThe oldest manuscripts in existence today that contain this section of Matthew say, "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit".  But, they're from the fourth century, a time when trinity was becoming an established doctrine of the Christian church.  There are only two such fourth century manuscripts, and none older.  However, They still have earlier writings that quote Matthew 28:19.\n\nJesus did not tell the disciples to baptize in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in Matthew 28:19.  In fact, he wasn't talking about baptism at all.  Rather, he commanded them to go, disciple all the nations in his name, teaching them to observe all of his commandments.  And then he promised them that he would be with them until the end of the age.

Jesus was following God's plan for His life, which was just PERFECT, if you ask me.  I'm glad He did.\n\nBaptism was part of God's plan,also..It represented the old life (going under) and the new life beginning (being brought up out of the water).\n\nHave you been baptized?

miracles, no.  Jesus, I believe several people (not just apostles) have written of him.  From what I understand though, few imply the possibility that he's the son of God.

Jesus had no biolodgical son. He never married he had to stuggle everyday of his life the way the people treated him on this earth. But we can all be his son's and daughter's in in his kingdom if we accept him as our father.

Because they are dumb and don't understand why Jesus told us to baptise:\n\n1Pe 3:21  Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as a removal of dirt from the body but as an appeal to God for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

Jesus is not an angel, he's higher than the angels. John 1:1 brings out that the Word(Jesus before being born to Mary)was WITH GOD and was a god.Also that ALL things came in to existence through him. But he is not the Almighty God, Psalms 83:18 will tell you the name of the only true God. John 14:28, John 3:16,18 and 1 John 4:9,10 also shows Jesus is not God, but Gods son.

This is the Christian's great commission, to tell whoever we meet the good news of the gospel. We are called to baptize those that accept the gospel in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Once the new believer is baptized (a public confession of his decision), then we are to teach these new believer the Word of God until he is old enough to walk and study on his own. But we do not have to do this on our own, the Lord will be there to help us--forever.
