In D&C 20:73, the formula/wording for baptism is: “Having been commissioned of Jesus Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.”
However, in the “Articles
and Covenants” (c. April 1830), the formula was “authority of Jesus Christ
shall go down into the water with them & shall say calling them by name,
saying, having authority given me of Jesus Christ I baptize thee in the name of
the Father & of the Son and of the Holy Ghost— Amen.”
