CHAPTER 2 The Conversion Story

WHAT HAPPENED? Pentecost Baptism Of The Holy Spirit Peter Stood Up And Preached To Them About 3,000 Were Added To Them

CONVINCED AND CONVERTED Clearly A Work Of God They Were Religious Respected God’s Authority The Truth About Jesus The Evidence Regarding A Risen Lord They Sought Something Different

QUICK OBSERVATIONS Religion Is Not Enough Authority Provides Conviction And Conversion Perils Of Relativism

PERILS OF RELATIVISM “It says that the way to healing and wholeness is to stop measuring yourself by external standards or expectations, even God’s. Instead, without reference to God or His Word, be yourself. Make yourself the measure of what is good and acceptable. Give yourself the unconditional positive self- regard. The only role that God has to play in this relativism is to be the divine endorsement of your own self-affirmation. God functions as a kind of booster for the absoluteness of self. If He presents Himself as one with standards or commandments, then He is part of the problem, not part of the solution.” - Piper
