The Bible teaches that conversion is a work of God where He turns a sinner to Himself, granting faith and repentance (Isaiah 55:6-7).
The Bible explains conversion as the command of the Lord that not only draws the lost to salvation but also sustains believers through trials and sin. In Isaiah 55:6-7, we are called to seek the Lord and return to Him for abundant mercy and pardon. This calls attention to God’s sovereignty in salvation – He speaks into the hearts of His elect, granting them faith and converting them. This process reflects His grace and the power of His word, which does not return void but accomplishes His purpose (Isaiah 55:11). Conversion is a transformation initiated by God where He changes our hearts and inclines us to seek Him.
