Conversion
Tuesday, January 8th, 2008A fellow preacher asked me today about conversion, and I was pretty sure he wasn’t referring to weights and measures. Turns out I was right, he was talking about a person giving up a life without Christ for a life with Christ.
Sometimes those folks are referred to as “converts.” Anyway, I started to say, “I think conversion is a process” but I left it alone. Then my friend said, “I think conversion is [pause] a process.
And of course I said, “That’s exactly what I was going to say” following which we also agreed that most people think of conversion as an event rather than a process.
Unfortunately we didn’t have the opportunity to continue that discussion. Fortunately I can ask you what we think. Are my friend and I crazy, or are we right?
