Is it possible that the salvation of a soul begins at repentance and it is therefore spiritually conceived; yet evidence of this new life isn't witnessed until it matures and is water baptized? Then this soul takes it's first breath by receiving the Holy Ghost?
To deny that a soul doesn't experience salvation and new life in Christ at repentance would then be the same as arguing that a child isn't truly alive upon conception.
True repentance should bring the infilling of the Holy Ghost, Only God can see in mans heart the sincerity within. I can not figure out how some here are so anointed as to see a mans heart and recognize true repentance.
