Many CANNOT be baptized. To deny them salvation is Satanic!
if something is truly not possible how can it be a requirement?

but you want to jump on that and make it into a standard that the requirement though is readily available is NOT NECESSARY!

that's wrong!

peter commanded to be baptized
Yeah, in the Name of Jesus!
the command alone is in the name of Jesus!
Alone?
the baptism is in obedience to our savior mt 28:19

Why don't you quote it? Let me help.

Matthew 28:19
19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the NAME (SINGULAR) of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

And that NAME is Jesus as Peter absolutely confirmed!
Acts 2:38 Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins;

You ain't baptized right!

I really don't see where in the bible we are told that a person who has believed on the Lord Jesus Christ will burn in hell because their baptism was deficient. Besides, the command of Jesus was not to baptize in His name, but in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit:

(Mat 28:19) Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

Granted, Peter says in Acts 2:38, "in the name of Jesus Christ," but as commentator John Gill wrote on that verse: "in the name of Jesus Christ; not to the exclusion of the Father, and of the Spirit, in whose name also this ordinance is to be administered, Mat_28:19 but the name of Jesus Christ is particularly mentioned, because of these Jews, who had before rejected and denied him as the Messiah; but now, upon their repentance and faith, they are to be baptized in his name, by his authority, according to his command; professing their faith in him, devoting themselves to him, and calling on his name."

I find it worth noting that Jesus said:

(Mar 16:16) He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.

He didn't say, "He who is not baptized will be condemned," or "He who is baptized in the wrong way will be condemned."
the command to be baptized is in the name of Jesus, the baptism itself is in obedience to Christ in mt 28:19

Amen?
