Baptism in Jesus Name
Why is it so important to be baptizing in the “NAME” of Jesus Christ? Why is it under His name? According to Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
The book of Acts is the beginning of the church of the Living God. Again, reminder is neither in your church nor, in your area. It is the church in Jerusalem this is where God “RECORD” His name.
It is very critical when “WE” label ourselves which church is right. That is the very dangerous things to say. If we believe in One God, One Faith, One Baptism, One Church…the only Church that we need to recognize is the Church of Christ beginning in Jerusalem.
Our duty as a Royal Priesthood is to PASS IT ON…THE GOOD SEED! Seed can be distributed in four corners of this earth. The good seed of God must pass it on to those individual like you and me. That is why it is important people to know where all started the Seed of God must start beginning at the Jerusalem.
When Jesus chosen twelve apostles He makes sure He will give them power but, Jesus told them to tarry or you can say wait…where? In the city of Jerusalem... Why Jerusalem? Because this is the fulfillment of the prophecy that God “RECORD” His name in Jerusalem in order for ALL NATIONS to recognize that name! Not only all nations the Heaven recognize that name! According to Ephesians 3:15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is “NAMED”
That is why Jesus said…
Luke 24:49 (KJV)
And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
Notice Jesus said…behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you. What promise? God has to give us the “power” from on high in order to defeat the satanic evil image law of Satan. The only way we can defeat Satan’s image full of evil is to carry the name of Jesus Christ in our life. The Image of the Invisible God is Jesus Christ Himself. Jesus said…why call me Good…that is, God.
Mark 10:18 (KJV)
And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.
Let me enlighten your understanding the Rod of Aaron is the same Rod of Jesus Christ. The name of Jesus Christ is our Rod! Let me enlighten your understanding instead of you CARRYING the stick or rod of Aaron we “Carry” the name of Jesus in the baptism. That will be awful today if we have to carry the stick all the time like a magic wand. Hahaha. Get the picture! Instead Jesus Christ commanded the apostles to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ in order for us to be sealed unto the day of Redemption. Get the picture?
Ephes. 4:30 (KJV)
And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
Regardless, what you believe in your life this matter is ALL ABOUT BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL! Regardless you believe in a frog god, serpent god, angels, religious acts, atheist, or whatever your mind tells you to believe the BOTTOM LINE IS….this is the matter between GOOD AND EVIL LAW! That is why we can recognize the invisible God simply because it is a Good Image of God. God from the Old and New Testament is all Good Image! When God created the Heaven and Earth He called it …Good! Meaning He identify His own Invisible Image of God. Called Good! If you read the five books of Moses this is God’s plan to manifest His own creations to those twelve tribes of Israel in order for these chosen people to be a witness God’s plan. That is why Jesus was rejected by His own people why? Because, He is just like nothing but a man to their own sight! These people did not realize this is between Good Image of Christ. Christ identifies Himself as Good Image. When God created Heaven and Earth He actually called it “Good” read all the chapters of Genesis in the beginning God….
Genesis 1:4 (KJV)
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
The Old Testament Law in the book of Proverbs…says, identifies the God of Israel…
Proverbs 30:4 (KJV)
Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in a garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell?
The descriptions about this particular verse are actually the descriptions about Jesus Christ. Who hath ascended up into heaven? Jesus ascended in Heaven. Who hath descended? Jesus! What did Jesus say? He identify Himself as…Son of man which is in where? Heaven!
Jesus said…
John 3:13 (KJV) And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. The book of Proverbs 30:4 asking “who hath established all the ends of the earth? Wow! If you don’t get the pictures out of these I hate to tell you the mind of satanic really working on you just to blind you completely not seeing the whole scriptures itself.
Let see what Proverbs 30:4 has to say further…saying…what is His name? Jesus identifies the “Father will send His name to His Son” where is the scriptures Jesus Christ quote that? Here it is! Jesus is the Father Himself identifies Himself as Good the Invisible Image of God called Good! The Father will send in my “NAME” whose name? Jesus name!
John 14:26 (KJV)
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Let’s us read further Proverbs 30:4 asking question saying…what is son’s name? Wow! My friend if you cannot tell the Good Invisible Image of God all I can tell you your image is evil. The bottom line is…to recognize the Good and Evil. There is no in between either your image is good or your image is evil. When God created Adam from the beginning they started good image and then what? Satan’s image mingled between good and evil. That is why the book of Genesis says…In the beginning God created …
Genesis 1:27 (KJV)
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
We already know God cannot be female in order for us to understand the invisible Image of God is called Good Image. This means Good Law! The Word of God identifies Himself as Son of God therefore He is male! The Image God referring to it is between Good Law and Evil Law. The whole concept about the Invisible Good Image of God is all Good Tree. Tree of Life-Jesus is the Tree of Life. Satan’s image is all Evil Law!
Now, we can understand why the book of Romans 7:21 says…
Romans 7:21 (KJV)
I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
So as you can read the scriptures telling us there are two laws in our mind one is good and one is evil law. Regardless you believe in somewhat of religion this type of law called two laws in your mind is mingled together that is why in the name of Jesus gave us the power to refuse the evil law in our mind.
The law of God is called Good. Let us read further in the book of Romans 7:22 says…
Romans 7:22 (KJV)
For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
What is this tells you? God is given us the Law of God in order to recognize the Evil Law. Remember there this is between good law and evil law there is nothing in between whether you do good law or you do evil law. Your mind has two members and also warring against the law between good law and evil law. That is why God has to establish the Good Law from the beginning of Adam and Eve but of course Satan’s image got involved in their good law.
The war begins in heaven what makes you think will not affect the earth? That is why the book of Romans 7:23 says...
Romans 7:23 (KJV)
But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
You yourself... will testify about YOU! How? Because you are the ONLY one knows what was going on in your mind. You can try to hide your evil image of law of your mind but, you cannot hide it from God! That is why the apostle Paul describe the warring against the law of my mind he say that, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. And then Paul says…Romans 7:24 (KJV) O wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
Can you imagine the apostle Paul one of the chosen of God yet, this man still having a problem about between two laws of his mind. What makes us think that we are not suffering on these things? That is why we have to have the law of Christ and serve the law of God called Good law!
The apostles Paul says…Romans 7:25 (KJV)
I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
Why is it important to be baptizing in Jesus name to give us “power” to refuse the evil image of Satan! Jesus said…why call me Good? That is, God.
Mark 10:18 (KJV)
And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? There is none good but one, that is, God.
Invisible Good Image of God called Good! The bottom line is… this is between good image and evil image of the law. That is why Jesus identifies between good tree and bad tree.
Luke 6:45 (KJV)
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
The beginning of the church is located in Jerusalem where God Himself to established the law of Good. The book of Acts is the beginning of the Church of Christ. The repentance is necessary; the Holy Ghost is our “Gift” from God. But, there is one thing that is very important that the apostles told us is to “SAVE YOURSELVES” After the apostle commanded us to repent, be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ we must save yourselves unto this untoward generations.
Acts 2:38 (KJV)
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 2:40 (KJV)
And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.
Why save yourselves? Because you are responsible to your own actions, because Satan’s image evil law will still abide inside of your mind because this is war between two members of your body as Paul describes for himself!
Regardless you believe your own religious act doesn’t go away the nature of “CARNAL MIND” because the carnal mind is enmity of God! Just like the scriptures says in the book of Romans…
Romans 8:7 (KJV)
Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
The nature carnal mind of human is enmity against God. Have you ever feeling good in yourself? And then, it only takes a second to changes your attitude to create evil to others. That is the carnal mind of human mind! We are actually warring the …Ephes. 6:12 (KJV)
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
As you can see that we do not see the “Rulers of the darkness of this world” it dwells inside of you that is what is all about the Gift of Christ given us to protect our mind if…if…if…we follow His Law of Good!
We can dance around all day long inside the physical church but, if you don’t take away your gossiping spirit, telling lies on people, teaching contrary the church of Christ, you might as well hang your religion in a satanic image law. This is what Jesus Christ told in the book of Matthew saying…
Matthew 23:4 (KJV) For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
Matthew 23:5 (KJV) But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,
Matthew 23:14 (KJV) Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
Scary when Jesus itemized this hypocrites they look good in the outside but their hearts is nothing but wicked! That is why the book of Acts says…Save Yourselves!
I could care less if you believe there is no god! One thing the Word of God says…there are two laws in your minds mingle together one is good image and one is evil image! That is why sometimes when you see someone walking in the streets more than likely you say something good or bad to them! The law of God testifies to yourself regardless you believe in God or not!
In the beginning God… created male and female in His own image meaning that is Good Law of His Invisible Image of God!
Romans 1:20 (KJV) For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Col. 1:15 (KJV) who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
Col. 1:16 (KJV) For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
Who is the Image of the Invisible God? The invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him.
The Image of Christ called Good! The Invisible Image of God called Good! Jesus said...why call me good? None is good, save one, that is, God-Good Image!
Luke 18:19 (KJV) And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.
Jesus said…Luke 20:36 (KJV) Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
When you do good its affect your soul. When you do evil it’s affect your soul. Your choice! But, you are commanded to SAVE YOURSELVES! This is the matter between Good Image and Evil Image! Keep in mind everyday your mind warring daily between good and evil. Possibility today at your home, work, and every corner of this world you can actually see between good image and evil image works on each individual person life.
God’s law is NOT a Religion it is a law of God image! This is between good and evil. Period! When Jesus comes back He will separated the good tree and bad tree! Are you enlightened yet? If not hang in there! There are more to prove in the word of God!
Matthew 13:38 (KJV) The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
Save yourselves! You control your own actions! If you think you can get away in God’s law…do you think you can get away in human laws? I don’t think so! Think again! Ohhh…la…la…
