What converts us?

What converts us?

• A. The law of the LORD
• B. Wealth
• C. The flesh
• D. Rituals

Answer: (A)

Conversion is an inward change of the heart brought about by God’s instruction. The law of the LORD is described as perfect and capable of converting the soul, meaning it reveals what pleases God, shows where we fall short, and guides us to live in harmony with His will. When we understand and submit to God’s commands, the inner person is transformed. Wealth focuses on external gains, the flesh represents our old, sinful nature, and rituals can be hollow without genuine inner renewal; none of these produce the lasting transformation that the law accomplishes in the heart.
