No Jesus did not convert. The Old Testament tells us of a new
covenant that God was giving to the Jewish people in "time to
come". When Jesus (the Son of God) came to earth in human form that
"time had come" Jesus simply instituted the new covenant. It was
the Jewish people who failed to recognize the Messiah and follow
Him into the new covenant.

Why should a new convert read the Gospel of John first?
The earlier gospels leave some doubt as to just how divine Jesus
was. Mark's Gospel says that Jesus was a human with divine powers,
adopted by God as his Son, at his baptism. The next two gospels,
Matthew and Luke say that Jesus was born of a virgin
and truly was the Son of God. Only John actually says that
Jesus was God and that he was present in the beginning of creation,
and only John has Jesus raise Lazarus from the dead.
By reading John's Gospel first, the new convert understands that
modern Christians regard Jesus as God, in the same way as his
Father.

Asked in Christianity, Islam, Syria, Virgin Mary
How can you convert to Christianity in Syria?
You can convert to Christianity in any part of the world simply
by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour. No paper work,
documentation, etc. Simply believe that Jesus Christ is the son of
God, that he died for our sin and was risen from the dead. Then
confess that you are a sinner, ask God to forgive you of your sins
and turn away from a sinful life style. Jesus will help you with
the turning away from sin part because it is impossible to do it on
our own. Please let me know how it goes and may God bless your
efforts.
