How does one "receive" Jesus and His subsequent power?

[Truther]

there is a command made in the name of Jesus and an instruction to be baptized in the way Christ commanded in Matt 28:19

That is backward theology.

You teach the name of Jesus is Father, son and Holy Ghost.

Acts 2:38 was introduced in the correct order...

The name of the Father, son and Holy Ghost is Jesus.

Gospels lead into Acts, not Acts lead into the gospels.

The gospels were written for sinners to know who to believe in.

Acts was written to show sinners exactly how to believe in Him...

38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

259. How is Baptism given?

Baptism is given by pouring water on the head of the child, saying at the same time these words: 'I baptise you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit'.

260. What do we promise in Baptism?

We promise in Baptism to renounce the devil and all his works and pomps.

261. Is Baptism necessary for salvation?

Baptism is necessary for salvation because Christ has said: 'Unless a man is born again through water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God'. (John 3:5)

the command to be baptized is given in the singular name of Jesus not the baptism itself which must obey Christ and Matt 28:19
The holy church is subject to Christ eph 5:24

Holy apostolic council of Trent with the authority of Jesus Christ binding on earth and in heaven!
