for example, "The snow is slowly
descending from the dark cloud." To use a word synonymous with
"descending" in the above sentence it must express the same thought and
present the same elegance of style. We find such a synonym in the word
"falling." "The snow is slowly falling from the dark cloud." The idea
expressed by these two sentences is precisely the same, and both are good
grammar. Let us now read Rom. 6:4: "Therefore we are buried with him by
baptism into death." To find a word synonymous with baptism it will not
deprive the word "burial" of its proper meaning. Try the word "sprinkle."
"Therefore we are buried with him by sprinkling into death." Please read
Mat. 3:5, 6; Mark 1:9; John 3:2, 3, and use the word sprinkle or pour
where the word baptize is used, and note the great absurdity. Why is so
much time spent in discussion over declarations so simple, clear and
plain? Because of the perversion of plain language by the spirit of error
to a self-conceited mind.

Trine Immersion.

There is a religious class of people that teach and practise three
immersions; one in the name of the Father, one in the name of the Son, and
one in the name of the Holy Ghost. Such teaching is based upon the
construction of Mat. 28:19. Only a little unprejudiced consideration will
enable you to see the fallacy of such an interpretation. These three are
one. If they were separate and distinct so we could act in the name of the
one to the exclusion of the others then we could better understand such an
interpretation of the above text. The apostles well understood that to act
in the name of one was to act in the name of the whole trinity; therefore
Peter says, "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus
Christ." Acts 2:38. Why did not Peter use the formula of Mat. 28:19?
Because to act in the name of one is to act in the name of all. "And he
commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord." Acts 10:48. "They
were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus." Acts 8:16. "When they heard
this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus." Acts 19:5.

Nowhere in the Acts of the Apostles is the triune name used in baptism.
Pages could be written showing the absurdity of the teachings of trine
immersionists, but we consider that what has been written is clear enough
to convince candid, unbiased minds, and any amount of argument will not
convince those who defiantly set themselves against any reasonings
contrary
