This episode, "Revelation Leads to Conversion," explores the second crucial principle for an amazing and spiritual mission experience. Your sole purpose as a missionary is to help others come unto Christ.
In this deep dive, you'll learn:
•
What is Conversion? It's more than just a testimony; it's a "mighty change of heart," a change in our very nature, becoming more like the Savior. It's about coming to Christ and living in a covenant with Him.
•
The Only Way to Come to Christ: Scripturally, the only way to conversion is through faith in Jesus Christ, repentance, baptism, and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost. Faith is the essential first step; "faith without repentance is absolutely worthless".
•
The Power of Revelation: Revelation is receiving a confirmation of the truthfulness of the gospel from God. It's not just intellectual understanding, but a spiritual "knowing" that leads to action. It's the "substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen"—more powerful than what you can see or hear.
•
Revelation Leads to Conversion: Revelation is the only way to begin growing the faith that ultimately leads to repentance, baptism, and the Holy Ghost.
•
How to Invite Revelation: Missionaries can help others receive revelation by inviting them to feast upon the words of Christ (especially the Book of Mormon), pray sincerely, and get to church. These actions invite the Spirit, which in turn grows faith.
•
Identifying the Holy Ghost: Learn how to help others recognize and identify the Holy Ghost's influence, whether it's a "peace," "joy," "still small voice," or simply when "everything just clicked" and "made sense".
•
Faith and Revelation are Intertwined: Your faith grows as you receive revelation, and you receive revelation according to your faith and action. You must actively cultivate faith; it doesn't grow passively.
•
Practical Missionary Advice: Study Preach My Gospel Chapter 11 on extending and helping people keep commitments. Even singing hymns can invite the Spirit.
This episode challenges listeners, especially youth preparing for missions, to seek their own revelation through faithful action and deep study, emphasizing that this process is essential for personal conversion and effective missionary work.
