What does it mean to be baptized in the name of Jesus?

Answered in 1 source

Being baptized in the name of Jesus signifies identification with Him, His death, and resurrection, showing one's commitment to follow Him.

Baptism in the name of Jesus, as seen in Acts 2:38, represents more than a ritual; it symbolizes a believer’s public declaration of faith and the inward transformation that has occurred. Following Christ’s example and command, baptism illustrates the believer's identification with Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection. This act of obedience signifies a commitment to a new life in Christ, fully embracing the gospel message. It also serves as an outward sign of the inward grace that a person has received through faith, marking their entry into the community of believers and the Church.
