[quote:DGN:MV81MjAxMTMwXzk1OTY4MzUwX0U4RUI1MUU3] 17. What is conversion, and why is it vital if we are to avoid repeating past sins? (Isaiah 55:7) 17 Conversion is another important factor that Jehovah considers. Conversion means “a turning around.” In other words, a person must change course by leaving his bad way and pursuing the way of Jehovah. (Read Isaiah 55:7.) The individual must transform his mind so that he is guided by the thinking of Jehovah. (Rom. 12:2; Eph. 4:23) He must be determined to leave behind his former bad ways of thinking and acting. (Col. 3:7-10) Of course, it is our faith in the sacrifice of Christ that provides the real basis for Jehovah to forgive us and cleanse us from sin. Jehovah will extend the value of that sacrifice to us when he sees that we are making a sincere effort to change our course of conduct.​—1 John 1:7. [/quote]

Jehovah—The Greatest Forgiver
“You, O Jehovah, are good and ready to forgive; you abound in loyal love for all those who call on you.”—PS. 86:5.
1. As recorded at Ecclesiastes 7:20, what truth did King Solomon express?
KING Solomon observed: “There is no righteous man on earth who always does good and never sins.” (Eccl. 7:20) How true! We are all sinners. (1 John 1:8) So we all need forgiveness from God and from fellow humans.
