18 The earliest form, represented in the [book of] Acts, was simple immersion in water, the use of the name of the Lord, and the laying on of hands. To these were added, at various times and places that cannot be identified, a triune name (Encyclopedia of Religion)

19 Baptism was originally in Jesus name (Dictionary of the Bible) Baptism was always in the name of Jesus until the time of Justin Martyr. (Catholic Encyclopedia) The baptismal formula was changed from the name of Jesus Christ to the words Father, Son and holy Ghost by the Catholic church in the second century. (Encyclopedia Britannica, Catholic Encyclopedia, Vol 2, p. 263) Christian baptism was administered using the words in the name of Jesus. (Hastings Encyclopedia) "It may be that this formula, (Triune) so far as the fullness of its expression is concerned, is a reflection of the [Man-made] liturgical usage established later in the primitive [Catholic] community. It will be remembered that Acts speaks of baptizing in the name of Jesus. (Jerusalem Bible, a Catholic translation)
