We can never get to the bottom of our relationship with God. Many choose to stay at the point of salvation, holding that being forgiven is enough for them. However, it is possible for those who never go "deep", to lose the intensity of their relationship and even drift back into their old patterns of living. There are many who are long-time Christians who are not mature Christians.
Christianity is unique in that salvation can be accepted in faith by someone who knows nothing more than the bare message of the Gospel, but the greatest intellectual minds can spend an entire career studying it and never feeling as though they have scratched the surface of what is there. At the core of the investigation we all find the trustworthiness of Jesus, who cannot lie and who becomes the steadfast anchor of our soul.
