Partiality
Do we
show partiality in our spiritual development and growth? Do we favor only
parts of God’s way of life over others? God has proven His impartiality

Becoming convinced that God’s way is the right way is the beginning step in a Christian’s conversion. In order to attain the goal, conviction must be maintained.

The Bible shows us in depth how this process works.
