|
|
<p class="BodyAfterHead" style="text-indent: 36pt; margin: 0pt; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;">The Trinitarian Baptismal Formula appears in only one place in the New Testament: in the canonical Greek Matthew at 28:19. The parallel in Mark 16:15 is otherwise identical except it lacks any trinitarian baptismal formula.</span></p>
|
|
<p class="BodyAfterHead" style="text-indent: 36pt; margin: 0pt; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;">Indeed, every surviving Greek manuscript of Matthew 28:19 has the trinitarian formula. The only non-Greek texts which have a variant that omits it are the Shem-Tob Hebrew Matthew and some old Latin and Syriac texts. Is it possible Matthew 28:19 was fraudulently changed to vindicate trinitarianism because very conveniently every surviving Greek text of Matthew [28:19] dates from 340 AD or later? It clearly could be modified and no one would be the wiser. Only quotes by the church fathers from an earlier time could betray the truth, as indeed seventeen such quotes exist and do so—each one omitting the trinitarian baptismal formula in their direct quotes from Matthew 28:19.<a href="file:///C:/Users/doug/Dropbox/Writings%20in%20Process/OGM%20Final%20Files/2014%20Final%20Framemaker%20Files/Excerpts/Appendix%20J%20Trinitarian%20Baptismal%20Formula.htm#pgfId-627942" class="footnote">1</a> [See Footnote 1 at end.]</span></p>

<p class="BodyAfterHead" style="text-indent: 36pt; margin: 0pt; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;">So how strong is the evidence? The consensus of even the most conservative scholars is that the trinitarian formula at Matthew 28:19 was added to the original Matthew at a very late point in time: after the adoption of the trinity doctrine. The book of Acts and Paul’s epistles repeatedly show the original baptismal formula was to baptize into only Jesus’ name. See Acts 2:38; 8:16; 10:43; 19:5; Gal. 3:27; Rom. 6:3; 1 Cor. 1:13-15. The Protestant authority <em>The New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge</em> (Funk & Wagnalls, 1908) at 435 agrees that Matthew 28:19’s trinity formula is a false addition:</span></p>

First, <a name="marker-585568"></a>Acts 19:3-5 teaches: “On hearing this, they were baptized <em><strong>into the name of the Lord Jesus</strong></em>.” Likewise in <a name="marker-585570"></a>Acts 2:39, Peter teaches: “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, <em><strong>in the name of Jesus Christ</strong> </em>for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” In <a name="marker-585571"></a>Acts 8:16 “because the Holy Spirit had not yet come upon any of them; they had simply been baptized<em><strong> into the name of the Lord Jesus</strong></em>.” In <a name="marker-585572"></a>Acts 10:48, we read: “So he ordered that they be baptized <em><strong>in the name of Jesus Christ</strong></em>.” In <a name="marker-585573"></a>Acts 22:16, we read: “And now why do you delay? Arise, and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.” Thus, the Greek-Matthew 28:19 has Jesus command use of a trinitarian formula which, if valid, would implausibly mean the apostles and early church <em><strong>disobeyed Jesus</strong></em> and improperly baptized in only Jesus’ name. Hence, the trinitarian formula is highly doubtful.</span></p>

However, his post-325 AD / Nicea quotes all contained the trinitarian formula. Professor Tabor comments: “Lack of Trinitarian formula for baptism in Matt 28:19-20 is unique [to Shem-Tob] but seems to be in codices that Eusebius found in Caesarea: he quotes (H.E. 3.5.2): ‘They went on their way to all the nations teaching their message in the power of Christ for he had said to them, “Go make disciples of all the nations in my name.’” (Tabor, supra.)

For Eusebius lived in Caesarea, and Eusebius mentions one Pamphilus as his source for Matthew. Then when we compare that fact against a contemporary writing from Jerome ca 400 AD about the original Hebrew Matthew that "most believe" was written by Matthew, we read that Jerome said it was in the Library at Caesarea, and one Pamphilus had carefully "collected it" -- apparently meaning made well-known extracts from it. These sources below prove these facts. Hence, most likely Eusebius was reading Pamphilus' extract from the Hebrew Matthew written by Apostle Matthew, and hence Matthew 28 originally lacked the trinitarian formula.</span></p>
