Matthew 17:1-8
King James Version
Jesus Heals an Epileptic
Matthew 17:14-20
1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.
7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.
8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.

Not sure. Are you asking personally, or are you just wanting to discuss what happens when a person becomes a believer? I'm really not quite understanding what approach you want to take.
In any case, there are many many resources online for new Christians. Just google 'for the new Christian' or similar

It's a good one, isn't it? So many are! 
That is one of my earliest panels I designed it as encouragement to/for a couple of people I know here who were struggling in their faith at the time. One has since become much stronger in her faith; the other still falters...

So encouraging because when we do falter, we are reminded that God keeps us and will keep us. Glad to hear one person has grown; the other may also. Visuals like what you create are easier to remember than just reading.

Thank you! I do hope they serve a greater purpose than the enjoyment I derive from being inspired to create them

point him to the gospel and tell him it’s the lords word the word of his eternal judge
“For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”
John 5:22, 24
After that point to him deeper into the word
“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
John 8:31-32 KJV
if someone believes this
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16
point then to more of what he said that calls then closer to him In Repentance and obedience
“And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: he is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.”
Luke 6:46-49
Eventually thier faith will sound like this
“Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.”
James 1:21-22 KJV
That way he won’t think “ I said I believe so I’m saved no matter what I do “ instead his faith will be created by hearing and believing the gospel the things God said are true of salvstion and he will grow up into the word d not away from the word
