sermon: Real Conversion
Are We Converted?
Richard T. Ritenbaugh
Given 06-Dec-97; Tape #316
Description: Richard Ritenbaugh contends that conversion, like salvation is a process that begins at a particular event in time (after our repentance, baptism, and receiving of God's Holy Spirit) but requires a maturing period in which we, using God's Holy Spirit, mortify the flesh and produce fruit. The process of conversion is actually God's workmanship creating a new spiritual being (putting off the old man and putting on the new man) with godly spiritual character- the image of Christ. This process requires continual growth and transformation from the mind of Satan to the mind of Christ (I Corinthians 2:16), allowing us to discern from God's perspective. (67 minutes)
