Calling on the Name of Jesus - Paperback

by Jason L. Weatherly (Author)

Calling on the Name of Jesus offers a powerful and scholarly exploration of the phrase "in the name of" throughout the Bible. This book takes readers deep into the Bible, examining the meaning of "in the name of" from Hebrew, Greek, and theological perspectives. This study delves into the historical controversies regarding the baptismal formula and investigates the origins of the "No-formula" doctrine. Additionally, it examines the Sacred Name movement's claim that the Savior's name should be invoked solely in Hebrew. Drawing on leading lexicons, translations, and commentaries, this work presents a compelling case that baptism should occur while calling on the name of Jesus!
