CONVERSION 歸正

Conversion is a deep work - a heart-work. It goes throughout the man, throughout the mind, throughout the members, throughout the entire life,

Joseph Alleine

歸正是徹底、完全的，這包括整個人、全部心思意念、所有器官、一切生活的歸正。

Nature forms us; sin deforms us; school informs us; Christ transforms us.

自然組成我、罪惡毀了我、學校教育我、基督卻使我得著改變。（這句話一旦翻成中文，英文原有韻味盡失，反正這四個英文字也不難，您還是使用英文的form, deform, inform and transform吧。）

I remember this, that every-thing looked new to me...the fields, the cattle, the trees. I was like a new man in a new world.

Billy Bray

我記得這，對我而言，每一件事物看起來都是新的...田野、牛羊、樹木。我就像在嶄新世界的一個新人。

Conversion is not the smooth, easy-going process some men seem to think it, otherwise man's heart would never have been compared to fallow ground and God's Word to a plough.

John Bunyan

歸正可不像某些人想的那麼順利、容易，否則也沒有人會把心比作未犁過的地，將上帝話語視為耕犁。

Regeneration is a spiritual change; conversion is a spiritual motion.

Stephen Charnock

更新是一個屬靈的改變；歸正則是一個屬靈的行動。

Conversion is but the first step in the divine life. As long as we live we should more and more be turning from all that is evil and to all that is good.

Tryon Edwards

歸正只是聖潔生活的第一步。從今開始，我們應當越來越遠離罪惡、靠近良善。

Consideration is the first step towards conversion.

Matthew Henry

「思考」是邁向歸正的第一步。

If no conversion, no salvation.

Matthew Henry

沒有歸正就沒有救贖。

Regeneration is a single act, complete in itself, and never repeated; conversion, as the beginning of holy living, is the commencement of series, constant, endless and progressive.

A. A. Hodge

重生是單一的行為，一次完成不再重複；歸正則是聖潔生活的起點，由此開始一系列、持續不斷、向前邁進的生活。

The almighty power of God in the conversion of a sinner is the most mysterious of all the works of God.

Thomas Hooker

使得罪人歸正的上帝大能，是上帝一切大工中最令人嘖嘖稱奇的奧秘。

I found that I was not only converted, but I was invaded.

Eugenia Price

我發現自己不只是歸正，而且還被（上帝）入侵了。

True conversion gives a man security, but it does not allow him to leave off being watchful.

C. H. Spurgeon

真實的歸正給人安全感，可是那不表示這個人從此不必儆醒度日。

True conversion gives a man strength and holiness, but it never let him boast.

C. H. Spurgeon

真實的歸正帶給人能力、聖潔，但卻從不會讓這個人以此自負自誇。

When the Word of God converts a man, it takes away from him his despair, but it does not take from him his repentance.

C. H. Spurgeon

當上帝話語使人歸正時，它除去這人的沮喪，但卻不會挪去他的悔改心情。
