SAUL'S CONVERSION AND PRINCIPLE FOR TODAY'S CHURCH!
\nSaul's conversion is one of the most significant kingdom principles we need to revisit, particularly in a day where we are witnessing all times of foreign characters in the Church claiming to be saved, called, and even operating in some form of ministry within the Body of Christ. There's a precise laid down value standard we see in the word of God that must be adhered to and applied in the lives of those who claim to be saved; there is a culture of kingdom lifestyle that should be manifest as the fruits of their salvation.
\nThis is what the Lord says: \u201cLet not the wise boast of their wisdom or the strong boast of their strength or the rich boast of their riches, 24 but let the one who boasts boast about this: that they have the understanding to know me, that I am the Lord, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight,\u201d Jeremiah 9:23-24.
\nThere are all types of people in our churches and lives who claim to be saved whose lifestyle contradicts their claim. As we continue to examine the book of Acts of the Apostles, we should carefully look back to these questions of conversion and redemption as a powerful foundation to where the Father is leading his church even as we enter the realm of divine representation.
\nYou don't need to look extremely far to know the standard of biblical truth regarding the principle of conversion approved by the Lord. If we are acquainted with our Bible and clearly allow the Spirit to speak to our hearts, we can clearly see the contradiction between what the word of God reveals to what society has accepted. Many have embraced church dogma, traditions, or doing things, including how they practice worship, but they yet to be converted. Likewise, many are deeply be involved in some form of religious assignments, which allows them to function in some form of leadership positions, but they are yet to be saved and converted to Christ.
\nThe word of God is obvious regarding the types of fruits a spiritually converted person should be bearing for the word to see. The principle we see in the Acts chapter once again introduces us to understanding the biblical conversation and the journey or process of sanctification, which is highly needed if we are going to precisely house the presence and authority that will change society carry for God.
