What does it mean to convert?

The gospel ≠ a religion it ≠ a set of rules that bring us to God
The gospel is Jesus, he is the message that God is in the midst of us. We don’t have to call Him, He calls us. Our part is to accept Him being with us. God wants to help, heal, and deliver, be our everything our source of life.
It is a decision that you individually make. No one can make it for you and He will not force you to choose Him. He desires to give you the best; He desires to give you life.

CONVERT = come back to God, renewal, revive

Everyone has been made by God; no one is meeting Him for the first time when they convert. To convert = coming back to God the one who formed us and knows everything about us.

To convert is not to meet God for the first time it is to come back to Him to acknowledge Him always being there and accept Jesus paying the price for the division that was caused by sin. Jesus is the gospel He is our hope the one who pays the price that we can never pay. It is up to use will we accept God gift or refuse it will we continue to live on Satan’s side or Gods.

REPENT = change way of thinking and living.

There is no middle ground you are either on Gods side or Satan’s.
