I see nothing in the Bible about a Head/Heart dichotomy regarding salvation. This type of thinking is rampant in the broad evangelical world. I think it is a by product of revivalism where a profession was not good enough. You needed a conversion experience to prove that you accepted Christ into your heart. Scripture tells us that if you confess with you mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that he rose from the dead you are saved (Rom 10:9-10). But who really knows the heart of any man except that man (1 Cor 2)?
