The phrase “Jesus Saves” is the heart of our faith. If there is no God that saves, then there is no Christianity.
However, as a catchphrase, “Jesus Saves” often comes off as too simplistic. The problem with our modern-day stories of conversion is that they don’t need God once they are saved. “Jesus Saves,” then what?
The way you know God is at the heart of conversion is if God continues to call you to live a life of love, fellowship and community. If God doesn’t keep calling you and pushing you to do better, then you have to question your conversion.
