9. Baptism in Jesus' Name - Paul M. Williams

Part 9

For Jesus Name Pentecostals, except that a person is baptised in water, they cannot have their sins forgiven, since they believe that it is at baptism that God washes away the sins of the believer. Oneness Pentecostals are not alone in this; other cults, including the Church of Christ, believe the same, as also do the Roman Catholic Church. What distinguishes Jesus Name Pentecostals from other groups is their belief that baptism is effective only when it is performed in the name of Jesus. What evidence is there in the Word of God for such a belief? What about the Great Commission, where Jesus commanded the disciples to baptise in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit?

Consideration shall be given in this ninth teaching part, and the evidence put forward by the Oneness Pentecostals shall be weighed in the balance.
