The Process of Becoming a Christian
The essence of becoming a Christian revolves around concrete acceptance and belief, characterized by a definitive yes or no regarding one's relationship with Christ. One cannot be partially adopted or partially born again; it is an all-or-nothing decision. The journey towards faith may not always be dramatic or immediately recognizable. An individual's belief can develop gradually, as illustrated by a prominent figure who, over time, shifted from disagreement to conviction through exposure to teachings. This process involves both intellectual agreement and personal surrender, culminating in a decisive moment of relinquishing control and placing trust in Christ. Importantly, salvation, accessed through grace rather than personal merit, necessitates clarity in the choice to embrace faith. The analogy of marriage highlights this concept: one is either married or not, underscoring that similar unequivocal commitment defines the Christian experience.
