Thabiti Anyabwile, What is a Healthy Church Member?:
Conversion is the radical turn from an enslaved life of pursuing sin to a free life of pursuing and worshipping God. Conversion is a change of life, not merely a decision. This change is not a matter of moral rectitude, self help or merely behavior modification. It is not accomplished by our outward displays or religious practices like “walking the aisle.” It cannot be accomplised by human effort but only by the power of God.
