19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of YHWH, and of the Holy Ghost:
How can WE baptize in accordance with GOD’s nature?I believe mostly "in the name of" means in accord with His nature. We even use it that way sometimes (tarnishing the family name).
Praise God, so you are saying the name of the son per Matt 28:19 is Jesus?No. ". . . of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: . . ." Not " of YHWH and of YHWH and of YHWH . . . ."

The divine nature of God that Jesus had was the Father's nature inside of him...How can WE baptize in accordance with GOD’s nature?
There is a big gulf between us and God (crossed by Jesus who had both natures - God and man). We have water and symbolism, but God has Spirit and power. In what sense is our “baptism” in accordance with the Godhead nature?
(Just tired of Truther nonsense and asking “where’s the beef” in this subject?)
". . . of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: . . ." -- per Matthew 28:19.New If a baptizer is verbally saying "I baptize you in the name of the son", is he...
A...lying?
If the baptizer says "son" and not the actual name of the son, is he lying?". . . of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: . . ." -- per Matthew 28:19.
The Name singular of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. The Father's name is not Jesus and the Spirit's name is not Jesus.Praise God, so you are saying the name of the son per Matt 28:19 is Jesus?
Sorry, I should have clarified.How can WE baptize in accordance with GOD’s nature?

The question is what the son's actual name is that Jesus instructed them to baptize in the name of.The Name singular of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. The Father's name is not Jesus and the Spirit's name is not Jesus.
If I may, must the name of Jesus be spoken to acquire authority in his name?Sorry, I should have clarified.
We baptize by the authority of Christ (by His name).
We are baptized in His nature, in His image, into His death and resurrection.
Matthew 28:19 doesn't say merely, " in the name of the Son." But in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.If the baptizer says "son" and not the actual name of the son, is he lying?
I agree.Matthew 28:19 doesn't say merely, " in the name of the Son." But in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Jesus didn't say in the names of. What you haven't figured out is saying "in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit" is immersing in the name of Jesus per Matthew 28:19!The question is what the son's actual name is that Jesus instructed them to baptize in the name of.
We can deal with the others' name whenever we finally figure out what the son's name is first.
If I may, must the name of Jesus be spoken to acquire authority in his name?
Or, can we do words/deeds in the name of Jesus without mentioning it?
No. 2 John 1:9.So it can also say this?...
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the GOD Christ Jesus;
Yes, so the first clue to the lone name of Matt 28:19 is, to find out what the name of the son is.Jesus didn't say in the names of. What you haven't figured out is saying "in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit" is immersing in the name of Jesus per Matthew 28:19!
So, all words and deeds are merely subject to thinking the name of Jesus without saying it?The words do not need to be spoken.
Paul was saying whatever we do (whether in word or action) do it in the name of Christ.
Colossians 3:16–17 Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.
The actual doctrine of Christ is God inside the man Christ Jesus.No. 2 John 1:9.
