IN WHOSE NAME?

Think back to the day you were baptized, if you were ever baptized that is. In whose name was the baptism done?

Was it done in the name of the minister or other person performing the baptism? Was it done in the name of a Church or religious organization that the person performing it was a part of? If it was done in a Church, was it done in the name of the Church, denomination or organization? Was it done in the name of the Church's or organization's founder(s). Was it done in the name of a man who is a self-professed prophet or self-professed important Church leader or figure?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above, then it was done erroneously. In the Holy Bible, the only inspired Word of God, Jesus Christ Himself gives us very specific instructions on how to do a baptism:

"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost"
(Matthew 28:19 KJV)

Any baptism done any other way is wrong! If this is how a Church, organization, or minister, do their baptisms, and not in the way prescribed in the Bible, then they are in error. And if they are in error on this, then what other teachings or practices do they have that they are wrong in?
