Chapter 7 Calling on His Name
pg. 135
Acts 22:16, calling on His name, harmonizes perfectly with 1 Corinthians 6:11 “in the name of the Lord Jesus” in that the effect of wash away thy sins is brought about by the UTTERANCE of His name! This is exactly what the participle of means (by calling) in Acts 22:16 indicates. Thus, calling on His name in Acts 22:16 has the same meaning as “in the name of Jesus” in reference to baptism (Acts 2:38; 8:16; 10:48; 19:5). That is, calling on His name is a reference to the name being CALLED OVER the baptismal candidate i.e. getting called over you His name or by calling over you His name.

Want to mention again, that there are over 100 Bible translations, lexicons, dictionaries, commentaries, & reference works cited in the book. This book is designed to be a quick reference guide for anyone studying the subject of baptism "in the name of Jesus Christ."
