Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. 20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you.
It is not the will of God, that after studying the life of Peter, that we should try to adjust, or modify our behaviors, for God is not looking for behaviors, He is seeking our total conversion, because, for too long, our walk with Christ, in many cases, have centered on behaviors.
In other words, if our understanding of conversion is strictly a behavioral change, then any guru, could give instructions on how that is to be accomplished externally. The problem with their version is that it does not come from, or reach the heart, and thus, persons can end up with a well-behaved preacher or priest externally, who is a pedophile internally.
The fact is that when persons are truly converted by God, the appropriate behaviors would surely follow, for if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. In other words, we are not to behave well, in order to be converted; we must be converted in order for us to behave well, even under trying circumstances.
Ephesians 4:21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus. 2 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; 23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
