ARE YOU CONVERTED ?

Most people that say they're Christians in all reality once you examine they're lives there's more attributes of and unbeliever then that of a believer. But the Christians that have been CONVERTED defiantly have faith in CHRIST and there lives represent the HEART OF GOD. We believe that when we're Baptised or Speak in Tongues we're CONVERTED. To be Baptised and to speak in Tongues is a GOOD THING. Theses things represent a Christians acknowledgement of GOD'S LOVE AND WORD. But this is not CONVERSION because we must grow in the Knowledge of GOD to be CONVERTED. Jesus blew in Peter's face and said receive ye The Holy Spirit but Peter was not Converted. "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Matt. 7:21-23 Most people who say they're Christians also believe in the daily horoscope. Even Peter had the same problem we have with Faith. Because he thought his belief was sufficient but he found out he had not been converted.  "And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: (((and when thou art CONVERTED,))) strengthen thy brethren. Matt. 22:31-32 Remember Peter lied, denied but when he realized he had not been CONVERTED he cried. We to should be crying knowing that our Lack of Faith exposes our GREAT need for true CONVERSION. David was a picture of true CONVERSION which is represented or made obvious by his Faith. True conversion can be seen when you fall, when pain comes into your life even in sickness. Faith or True Conversion gives us the power to get up, Faith gives you the knowledge to deal with pains of life. Faith even removes the sting of death. One of the things that caused David fall was his pride after becoming king he had the people numbered. Not to see if there were enough provisions for the people, but to see how powerful he had become and how many warriors that were in his control. Watch the Heart David which represents true Conversion.  "And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah. For the king said to Joab the captain of the host, which was with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba, and number ye the people, that I may know the number of the people. And Joab said unto the king, Now the LORD thy God add unto the people, how many soever they be, an hundredfold, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see it: but why doth my lord the king delight in this thing? Notwithstanding the king’s word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the host. And Joab and the captains of the host went out from the presence of the king, to number the people of Israel. And they passed over Jordan, and pitched in Aroer, on the right side of the city that lieth in the midst of the river of Gad, and toward Jazer: Then they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtimhodshi; and they came to Danjaan, and about to Zidon, And came to the strong hold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites: and they went out to the south of Judah, even to Beersheba. So when they had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days. And Joab gave up the sum of the number of the people unto the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men. And David’s heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the LORD, I have sinned greatly in that I have done: and now, I beseech thee, O LORD, take away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly. For when David was up in the morning, the word of the LORD came unto the prophet Gad, David’s seer, saying, Go and say unto David, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three things; choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee. So Gad came to David, and told him, and said unto him, Shall seven years of famine come unto thee in thy land? or wilt thou flee three months before thine enemies, while they pursue thee? or that there be three days’ pestilence in thy land? now advise, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me. And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let us fall now into the hand of the LORD; for his mercies are great: and let me not fall into the hand of man. So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy thousand men. And when the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, It is enough: stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD was by the threshingplace of Araunah the Jebusite. And David spake unto the LORD when he saw the angel that smote the people, and said, Lo, I have sinned, and I have done wickedly: but these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father’s house. 2Sam. 24:1-17
