Conversion

I am reading a book by Dr E Stanley Jones on Conversion. The reason I was attracted to the book is because I have always liked his stuff ever since as a kid I picked up his book The Way from my Mum's bookshelf. It was also because I think the word "conversion" is hardly heard these days to describe the work of God in a person's life. We talk about people "coming to faith" or making a committment or giving their lives to Christ. They are not bad phrases but we are surely missing a vital thing if we forget that being a Christian involves to quote Dr Stanley "a change in character and life followed by an outer change of allegiance corresponding to that inner change."


God bless
