How do we know that conversion is necessary for salvation?

Answered in 3 sources

Conversion is essential for salvation, as it signifies turning from sin to God, emphasizing a change of heart directed by the Holy Spirit.

Conversion is rooted in the necessity for a transformative experience dictated by the Holy Spirit, as stated in Acts 26:18, where individuals are 'turned from darkness to light.' This 'turning' signifies not only a change in direction but also a complete dependency on God’s grace for salvation. Without this conversion, one remains under the influence of sin. The Gospel teaches us that through faith, we are given the grace to turn to God, making conversion a vital aspect of experiencing true salvation.
