more than saved

Are you saved?
That's lingo for asking if someone is a Christian.
It is biblical (Romans 5:9) But there's more.

A fireman can run into a burning building and "save" a family he's never met before.
A doctor can perfom an emergency surgery on a patient and "save" him. After the surgery, the doctor goes to lunch and never talks to or sees the man again.

It is possible to save someone and not even like them.

God saved us through Christ, but even more than that, we are also reconciled to him.

Friends reconcile. Couples reconcile. God and sinners reconcile through Jesus.

That means we are going to be spending a long time together.

That's what He wants.
