“In the name of” – What does it mean? (822 hits)

 

The magical theory that names can be used as words of power, whether to control the universe outside of the magician or to achieve union with “God” or the “Absolute” or whatever Name is preferred, the concept is of God using His name to create everything. Pronunciations of sacred names would make Baptism invalid unless it is into the correct name of Yahoshua or Yeshua or such version. This takes away entirely the concept of God’s grace, election and willing self-revelation.   http://www.ccg.org/s/p240.html
