Baptism
Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
First of all baptism is not optional, its a requirement if you want to be saved.(Mark 16:16) Its the only way to have your sins remitted. So we must know from the beginning it aint optional, unless of course we want to be lost. Yet many of the same folks that say its just optional are the ones who baptism in the titles and argue against the true form of baptism, why worry if its just optional? But once it again it is not optional and the triune formula is false doctrine. There is only one Biblical way to be baptized for the remission of our sins. It must be in the name of Jesus Christ, for that name is the only saving name.(Acts 4:12) Key word is name, the only saving name is Jesus!
Father is not a name, its a title. So what is the name of the father?
John 5:43 I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
So here is Jesus speaking telling us that he has come in his father's name. So whats the name of the father?
JESUS
Son is not a name, its a title. So what is the name of the son?
Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
So here is the name of the son, JESUS! This was the man Christ Jesus, we must understand he was flesh and in him was the fullness of the Godhead. God (a spirit John 4:24) was manifested in the flesh (1 Timothy 3:16). He was the son of God, not God the son.
Holy Ghost is a title. What is the name?
John 14:26 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.
What name? JESUS! The Holy Ghost is the spirit of God, so of course it would be the same name.
John 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
John 7:39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
Romans 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Read the Bible, no where will you find were anybody was baptized in other name than the name of Jesus for the remission of sins. Only other baptism found in the Bible was John's baptism, and those baptized unto John's baptism were re-baptized by Paul in Acts 19. There is no such thing as a trinity, the word is not in the Bible. There is one God manifested in various ways throughout time. It is impossible to find one place where anybody in the Bible was baptized in the titles, it didn't happen. They understood what Jesus was commanding them, and that was to baptize in the name.
Read Acts 2, Acts 8, Acts 10, Acts 16, Acts 19...baptism is in the name of Jesus Christ.
Hebrews 2:3 How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;
Hebrews 2:4 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?
This thing wasn't done in a corner, God confirmed his word. The Apostles and what they did must be our example, they obeyed the voice of God! They didn't baptize in other name, even history tells us that.

Beautiful in his time
Ecclesiastes 11:5 As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.
God knows all things.
Ecclesiastes 3:11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
And he always has a plan. We do not always understand why he is doing what he is doing, and we dont always understand why he commands us to do what he commands us to do, We can be assured no matter that he is working everything out for our good. He makes all things, and in his timing everything becomes beautiful that is in his will.
Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Just keep trusting God, he knows all things and will make everything become beautiful in the life of his saints. Because with him we always win

Can You See, But Not See???
Proverbs 14:6 A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: but knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth.
Proverbs 14:7 Go from the presence of a foolish man, when thou perceivest not in him the lips of knowledge.
Proverbs 14:8 The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit.
Proverbs 14:9 Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.
As believers we must have understanding of the scriptures. Knowledge is not enough; and true knowledge comes easy when there is understanding. Those that never come fully to the knowledge of the truth never got a line upon line understanding of the Bible. It's possible for us to hear scripture, but really never have an ear to hear what the Lord is trying to speak to us spiritually.
Mat 13:13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
Mat 13:14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
Mat 13:15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
Mat 13:16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
Mat 13:17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
As in these scriptures there are those that God wants to save and heal, but their heart has prohibited them from understanding truth. The enemy would like to blind our hearts from faith and keep us in bondage.
2Ti 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
Why? Why are these individuals ever learning? What has caused for this condition of their heart? They are blinded!!!
2Co 4:1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;
2Co 4:2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
2Co 4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
2Co 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
This is why they are blinded. This is why we must always pray for our understanding to be opened as we read the scriptures; and this is why we must always let our beliefs be based solely upon what the Word of God says.

Self-Examination
2Corinthians 13:5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
An old silversmith was standing one day over a large vessel that was boiling over a roaring fire. His face was smeared with sweat and ashes; it was weather-beaten and weary. Yet he smiled as he stared at the metallic gray liquid, because he knew it was being perfected. A while later, one of the old silversmith's apprentices walked by and wondered what the old man was smiling about. The young apprentice stared into the rippling liquid and asked the old man, "Sir, how do you know when the silver is perfect, free from impurities I mean?"
James 1:23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
James 1:24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
James 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Just like the old silversmith, God is watching over each of His children's lives, putting us through the test of fire and trials to burn away our imperfections....and make us more like Him.
1Peter 1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

The old man replied, " Well son you see, how I know that this silver is done being perfected is when I see my reflection in the silver liquid." He turned back to the pot and continued watching his silver...waiting to see his reflection.

Waiting upon the Lord
Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
This scripture is so true...for many years I had questioned whether I really had a purpose and whether I was ever going to see God work through me to the good of others. I waited 9 years for the man of my dreams....and my message to all you young ladies out there is wait on the Lord, put Him first, and all things in your life will fall into perfect place....and in His perfect timing. I'm happy to say now that I am Justin Caudle's wife...and God did keep me strong in Him. Another thing I would like to say, is that life is so much better if you save yourself for your mate! So challenge yourselves to keep God in the center and He will renew your strength....that's Gods divine promise to all of us no matter what comes our way!!!
Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
