God Can Save Anyone

Pastor Justin Hansen continues in the book of Acts, teaching from Acts 9:1-9. We experience the power of conversion, and specifically conversion as a type of resurrection in Jesus Christ, a spiritual resurrection. Conversion is a moment of one’s salvation but not the whole of it. Conversion is the moment when we believe in the name of Jesus and have faith in his life, death, and resurrection. It is in this moment our souls rise from the grave of sin and death. Luke in Acts 9 is trying to show us this with Saul’s conversion. Saul had just been complicit in the death of Stephen, and then right after, he persecuted and aggressively attacked the church. Saul caused death and was living in complete darkness and sin. Yet, it is Saul that God uses to show the power of new resurrection life.
