“Conversion is life long,” he said. “It is ongoing. It is ever deepening. It is daily. And it is also difficult.”

Wrong, sanctification is a lifelong process. Conversion happens when we accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. To say conversion is a process intimates that we somehow earn it over time. This is non-scriptural.

Amen.

Conversion happens once and one should continue to grow in knowledge and faith. I have grown in my level of knowledge, understanding and faith since I was baptized 50 years ago. this is how I interpret “conversion is life long.” If you prefer to see conversion as being the beginning and end of your journey with Christ, with no further study or desire to understand more deeply of Christ, so you have decided.
