New Testament Baptism In The Name of Jesus (Acts 2:38) in Europe, Russia, India, Africa (Egypt), Mexico and Canada 1700 A.D. to 1900 A.D.

About the Book

The twenty-first century saw one of the greatest explosions of baptism in the name of Jesus only on one of the largest scales globally with the noted events of Azusa Street, since the New Testament period and thereafter. Yet we must not forget its continued practice and invocation from the Day of Pentecost and throughout history. Understanding this concept will secure the ground to defend its continued practice and global recognition. Over the centuries we find credible sources and evidence showing and demonstrating that baptism in the name of Jesus has long survived. We see its practice in Europe or the European Union States (EU) as it is modernly termed and its noted observations in Russia as explained in various studies and literature. To its practice in India in which it is said that India has been home to the apostle Thomas who arrived to India to evangelize it with the apostolic doctrine. In adding to India’s evangelization are the comments of the Cambridge University scholar, who explains in the noted work of the renowned church historian Eusebius of how the Gospel of Matthew in Hebrew had arrived to India in the latter part of the second century. Similarly an important study has also noted baptism in the name of Jesus only in Africa, namely Egypt, as explained by American scholars to various periods in African ecclesiastical history illustrating its continual observation. Most importantly, we share in the great awakening testimony by the highly renowned leading Mexican Apostolic Church Historian, a much decorated scholar in the world of biblical and theological scholarship. This scholar’s work informs the reader of the long standing history of baptism in the name of Jesus only in Mexico and Latin America. We are also informed about literature discussing baptism in the name of Jesus in Canada. This clearly reveals that baptism in the name of Jesus only has a long standing undisputable history. Understandably this stems from the events and message in Acts of the Apostles chapter two, which continues to this present day long before the introduction of the practice of Matthew 28:19.
