I would really like to hear somebody who is really articulate about the elements of their faith conversion. I'm not.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Conversion is not my intention. Changing religion is not easy. You may develop some kind of confusion or difficulties.
I'm not an evangelist Christian at all. I can't try to convert anybody. It's not in me to do that. But my faith has given me such an appreciation of people and meaningful relationships, and a world view which I didn't have before. And although I will fail every day, it gives me something to aspire to.
Conversion is an enlarging, a deepening, and a broadening of the undergirding base of testimony. It is the result of revelation from God, accompanied by individual repentance, obedience, and diligence.
Conversion is an offering of self, of love, and of loyalty we give to God in gratitude for the gift of testimony.
Conversion is a very, very important part of what you are doing. We will have a responsibility to report to Heavenly Father regarding those we bring into the Church.
What I've found, and what Scripture tells us, is that your faith is not something on the side, something you carry with you - it is inherently who you are.
Knowing that the gospel is true is the essence of a testimony. Consistently being true to the gospel is the essence of conversion.
It is no longer a question of a Christian going about to convert others to the faith, but of each one being ready to listen to the other and so to grow together in mutual understanding.
Our Holy Father says every one of us is in need of conversion, beginning with ourselves. We are all in need of the grace of Jesus Christ to receive the Gospel.
I was a convert to Catholicism, and converts are much more devout.
