Stories Of Repeated 'Get Saved Again' Moments
- Justin Todd and others experienced repeated re-conversions because sermons made assurance conditional on flawless performance.
- Joby and Justin recalled multiple baptism certificates and a culture where people were told 99.9% sure equals hell, illustrating insecurity-driven preaching.
