When people ask in church who in the congregation are converts, I always raise my hand. I have been converted to the truthfulness of the Church and to the Gospel of Jesus Christ many times!
So, if someone has received a definite communication that their Calling and Election is made sure, and if they later sin, is is possible for them to repent, be forgiven, and obtain a re-confirmation of that status?
I realize this is where D&C 132 comes into play. Maybe that is the answer.

Ryan,
My understanding of this topic has increased a lot since I first posted this thread here: http://www.elliaison.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=198&start=0&rid=35&S=ab57728406aa376366d2f9ec78d4b600 , but it might be a start in answer to your questions.
