How do we know that Paul's conversion of the jailer was genuine?

Answered in 1 source

The Philippian jailer's salvation was marked by immediate faith and baptism, reflecting true conversion.

In Acts 16, the jailer, after experiencing the divine miracle of an earthquake and fearing for his life, asks Paul and Silas what he must do to be saved. Their answer is clear: to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. His subsequent actions—tending to their wounds, rejoicing greatly, and being baptized—demonstrate a genuine conversion. The transformation from a hardened jailer to a believer illustrates the effective power of the gospel and the necessity of faith, coupled with repentance, in salvation.
