ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA, 11TH edition, (1910), Vol 2, Pg 365 The Trinitarian formula and Triune immersion were not uniformly used from the beginning… Bapti[sm] into the name of the Lord [was] the normal formula of the new Testament. In the 3rd century baptism in the name of Christ was still so wide spread that Pope Stephen, in opposition to Cyprian of Carthage, declared it to be valid.
