Have you obeyed Jesus?

Matt 28:18And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

This is the last words of Jesus. His last command to us, known as the great commission. My question is: Have you obeyed the command? He commanded us to be baptized in the NAME of the Father. Question should then be: What is the name of the Father. He commanded us to be baptized in the NAME of the Holy Ghost. Question should then be: What is the name of the Holy Ghost? And likewise with the Son. We all know what the name of the Son is, but what about the Father, and the Holy Ghost?
Peter gives us the answer himself, when at the day of Pentecost, only ten days after Jesus command, stands up with the rest of the Apostles and answers the question: What shall we do?
Acts 2:38Then 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.


Have you obeyed the last words of Jesus? Have you been baptized in his name?
