The CLASSIC book on conversion and the believer's salvation written from a biblical perspective; paperback with 253 pages. A must read!!!
Summary found online: 'Jones…sees conversion as the activity of God on our behalf that results in the transformation and reordering of the total life. That is, we accept Christ as our Life! I would suggest to you that Jones has a fuller, more biblical understanding of conversion than that promulgated today in popular religion. Conversion does not make us perfect, but it does catapult us into a total experience of discipleship that affects — and infects — every sphere of our living. When we begin our pilgrimage of faith, we may not know all that conversion to Christ will mean, but we can be assured that no corner of our lives will be left untouched.' Copy written in 1959; printed in 1978-9th printing.
