Authority from Jesus Christ

Verily I say unto you,
that whoso repenteth of his sins
through your words,
and desireth to be baptized in my name,
on this wise shall ye baptize them—

Behold,
ye shall go down and stand in the water,
and in my name shall ye baptize them.

And now behold,
these are the words which ye shall say,
calling them by name, saying:

Having authority given me of Jesus Christ,
I baptize you in the name of the Father,
and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

And then shall ye immerse them in the water,
and come forth again out of the water.

And after this manner
shall ye baptize in my name;
for behold, verily I say unto you,
that the Father, and the Son,
and the Holy Ghost are one;
and I am in the Father,
and the Father in me,
and the Father and I are one.
