In most Apostolic churches you would be baptized in the name of Jesus, then God would hopefully give you the gift of the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost may also be called the Holy Spirit. To become a member you do not have to be saved, yet you could not be in the choir or anything until you got saved, though.

the bible does not record a single instance where any one was baptized "in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost" however in acts 2.38 acts 8.12, acts 8.16, acts 10.48, and acts 19.5 people where baptized in the name of Jesus.the reason thy baptized in Jesus name was because thy understood that Jesus was the NAME of the father and the son and the holy ghost.
Jesus Christ was baptized in order to do what His Father commanded Him. As the Savior said to John the Baptist, "Suffer it to be so now, for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness" (Matthew 3:15). But why was it necessary?The Savior Jesus Christ was perfect, and so had no need to be baptized for the remission of sins. But baptism is necessary in order to return into the presence of God, " He that beleiveth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned." (Mark 16:16). It shows us the perfect example, that all are needed to enter in at the gate of baptism and receiving the Gift of the Holy Ghost.It also shows us a type and shadow of things that will come in the future. Paul identifies this in Romans. " Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life." (Romans 6:3-4)And now, if the Lamb of God who is holy, has need to be baptized with water, how much more do we, being sinners have need to baptized, even in water? He has asked us to follow Him, but how can we follow Him unless we obey the Father? The Father has asked us to all be baptized by His authority. At the time of Jesus, John the Baptist was the only one with authority from God.
The Apostolic doctrine: Ephesians 4:5 "One Lord, one faith, one baptism," This is word of God.
People who want to be considered Christian should be baptized primarily because Jesus told the disciples to go and make other disciples baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. (Matthew 28:19-20). A second reason is that a new believer in Christ would logically want to be identified with Jesus and one way is to be baptized. Most controversy regarding baptism in Christian churches is not why someone should be baptized, but how should a person be baptized. That issue raises all kinds of tempers with different denominational organizations. Bible literalists may want to be baptized in the Jordan River in Israel. Less literal groups may choose immersion baptism in some other water body or a baptismal font in a church. Non-literalists might be happy to be baptized with water by sprinkling. I once asked my pastor how he would baptize me if we were in a desert and there were no water. He thought a minute and answered, "I would spit on my hands and baptize you with that." I said "No can do; we are dried out, have cotton mouth, and can't spit or pass any other form of water!" He finally said he would baptize me with sand! I thought that reasonable. So, some may think immersion in "holy" water sanctified by all sorts of ritual and some may think in whatever is convenient with as little ritual as possible!
To be considered Catholic by the Church, you must be baptized in the Catholic Church, or else properly baptized in another church and formally received into the Catholic Church by a priest. Being born to Catholic parents isn't enough. You can be the Pope's nephew, but if you haven't been baptized, you are not Catholic.
The forms of worship between the Apostolic and COGIC are similar. The Apostolics believe in baptism in the name of Jesus only (not Father, Son, Holy Ghost like COGIC), and believe the evidence of infilling of the Holy Ghost is only by speaking in tongues (different than COGIC).
If you were baptized in another church, you do not get baptized again. The Church recognizes the one baptism as valid.Roman Catholic AnswerYou may be baptized if the original baptism was not valid. You should check with the priest. If there is some question, they may baptize you conditionally, "if you are not already baptized, I baptize you in the Name of the Father..." as to attempt to "re-baptize" a person is very wrong.
The Ukrainian Catholic Church is in union with the Holy Father and the Roman Catholic Church, so there should be no problem at all with a child baptized in that rite of the Church attending a Roman Catholic school.
A candidate in the Catholic Church is someone in the process of becoming a member of the Catholic faith who has already been baptized in another Christian Church by means recognized by the Catholic Church (i.e. done in the name of the Father, Son, & Holy Spirit). A person converting who has not been previously baptized is known as a Catechumen.
No. As Christians, we believe in 'one baptism for the remission of sins.' You cannot be baptized twice. As long as you were baptized using the formula: "....I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit," then your baptism was perfectly valid and it does not need to be repeated.
Yes, when he was a teenager he lived with a friend whose father was a preacher. He also sang in the church choir.
You can find Father Masango St' John's Apostolic Faith Mission in Lesotho and it is lead by the honourable Dr Archbishop Matsoso...

Yes. Both Joseph Smith's mother and father, as well as all his siblings, were baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints very shortly after it was organized by Joseph. They followed him and remained faithful to the church throughout their lives.
Generally, Catholics have their babies baptized within a few days, or weeks, of birth. The Church feels that the sooner they are baptized, the better should health complications arise that could take the child's life before they can be baptized.
There is no record of who baptized Howard W. Hunter. We do know that it was not his father, as his father was not a member of the Church at that time. President Hunter was baptized April 4, 1920 (at the age of 12) in the Natatorium, and indoor swimming pool in Boise, Idaho. His sister Dorothy (age 10) was baptized the same day. It is possible that his bishop or another member of his ward performed the baptism, as his bishop ordained him a deacon only 2 months later.
