As I said mate, let THE BIBLE do the talking, there are 5 or so verses, to be baptized in JESUS'S name and not to mention, there are two, pretty much parallel verses in two of the other Gospels.
So I'm sorry, your grasping at straws and on thin ice, with that one.
Oh, and you want to talk about Panin do Ya - OK, forget about him, lets look at Bible numbers.
God = 7 but it ends up 777 - 3= divine/perfection, hence 3x 7's.
Jesus = 8 - 888 = new beginning, resurrection. (From memory, if not all, pretty much all his names, has this 888).
NOW THEN,,,,,,, are YOU READY.....................
WORD or THE WORD = 37 Hallow, hallow,,,,,,,,,,,we are NOT seeing Jesus in these numbers, OH,,, I wonder WHY?
BECAUSE, Mate,,,,,,, The Almighty God and Father (The ONE GOD) is THE WORD!
7 Words exactly in the Gen 1:1 in Hebrew = The One God's seal- Beginning created God (et) WORD heavens and earth.
Psa 119:105 By the Word of THE LORD were the heavens made and the hosts of them by the breath of His mouth.
Jesus exalted now John 1:18 in the Greek is now, the only begotten God, but not The Almighty God and Father of lights.
The Holy Spirit IS, The Almighty God's Spirit = Two there art in Heaven and Jesus now named after the Father, The Word has the Name = The Word OF God.
Name only and that name meaning or reason given, is because of the role God had for him = To bring the Good News of The God & Fathers, Word of Life into the world, like never before. 1 John 1:1-2.
John 1:4 Greek/Hebrew - The Word (Basar) Good News became ...........The Temple not built with Hands = Jesus.
God being The Word which is also Spirit - Dwelt in The Temple without Measure so the prophesy could be fulfilled = Emmanuel.
Jesus came to FINISH the Fathers words = They had already began.
Back in OT, Good News would come, a child being born, a wedding, the Lamb killed, and they had a feast, flesh to celebrate the the Good News.
What does Jesus say your to do with his body?
You see Tonio, you have to have perfect flow, NO mysteries., OT to the NT
But back to your Matt verse = Do You Know, to be Baptized in Jesus's name only is to be Baptized in the Name of the Father/Holy Spirit as well, anyway. Jesus says or effectively, if you know not either of them, then you know not the other.
You can't have one without the other, if that makes sense?
If you had know me, you would have know the Father, BECAUSE, he dwells in me = Hence Jesus is the Image OF.
But hey, Tonio, don't just take my word for things and by the way, I seek, find before I even go near the net to see if others see what I see.
My advice, Do Not be led by Others, but OURS Truly.
