Conviction, then Repentance?
We see it happen all the time - a person is charged, arrested, and even found guilty of a crime. Then, we find that person has made a profession of faith in Jesus Christ. That doesn’t exempt a person from the consequences of his or her misdeeds, but it can produce a heart change, as a person accepts Jesus as Lord and Savior and receives eternal life. We heard recently about a prisoner who had essentially a life sentence who gave His life to Christ, and he was released from prison early. That can certainly happen. But not always. The really good news is that the person who is convicted has true freedom in the Lord.
