To The Reader:
At PAA, we have something I trust you will want: eternal life. Before you dismiss this as just another Christian group, please take a moment; your soul is worth it.
God's plan for our salvation from sin, death and hell is found in Acts chapter 2 verse 38:
This plan is conveniently repeated throughout the book of Acts in order to leave us no doubt on how to proceed. Did Peter and the other Apostles contradict Jesus' words spoken in Matthew 28:19 when they baptized people in Jesus name? Not at all. Remember that the Apostles had walked with Jesus throughout His 3½ years of ministry before He was crucified and were with Him after His resurrection. They were in no doubt of what He meant and that is what they did and preached in Acts.
Where most Catholic and Protestant groups fall short is not baptizing in Jesus name and not receiving the Holy Ghost. But be assured that according to the Bible if we are not baptized in Jesus name and if we are without God's Spirit within us (the Holy Ghost), we are damned. And how do we know when we are filled with God's Spirit? Fortunately, God gave us a sign so we can be sure we have His Spirit. When you receive the Spirit of Almighty God into your heart, you will speak in a language you have not learned. In the book of Acts, this is known as "speaking in other tongues" and is the only sign God has given.
There are many lies out there:
And many other lies.
If these were just my words, they would be easily ignored. However, these words are the written testament of Almighty God, whom we at PAA serve. I welcome the opportunity to discuss any of these issues with you. I also hope you will visit us soon on Sundays at 10 AM at the Wyndham Garden Hotel (corner of Forbes Avenue and McKee Place).
If you have read this letter, you now know what you must do to be saved. The next step is yours. I pray you decide your soul is worth it.
With prayer and hope,
Pastor Nicholas Blizzard |

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. |

Lie: Just be a good person Truth: We have all sinned (Romans 3:3)
Lie: Just believe Truth: Even the devils believe (James 2:19)
Lie: If we are baptized in the titles - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost - we are saved Truth: We must be baptized in the name - Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:38)
Lie: The Holy Ghost and speaking in other tongues is not for today Truth: If we do not have the Holy Ghost (evidenced by speaking in other tongues), we do not have God's Spirit living inside of us (John 3:5; Acts 2:38-39)
Lie: Say this sinner's prayer and God will come into your heart Truth: This is not found anywhere in scripture |
