But where did the spin that has Scripture saying that a person is not born again until they speak with tongues come from? I don't have much confidence in what anyone teaches who does not accept what Jesus answered Nicodemus when he asked, "How can these things be?"
The only thing Jesus told Nicodemus in answer to his question as to how someone can be born again is that whosoever believed on Him would have eternal life.
Accepting this truth that Jesus spoke to Nicodemus does not take anything away from the need to repent and be baptized or diminish the need for one to receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
You have to deny the work of the Holy Ghost and attribute the transformation that takes place in the lives of millions of people who hear the gospel and place their faith in Jesus Christ for salvation to the devil, which is blasphemous as far as I am concerned.
If the PAJC position on salvation made sense it would be easier to accept, but unfortunately it makes no sense at all because it doesn't reflect what actually happens in the lives of most believers.
