Used in the film "Flight of the Intruder" in the court-martial scene. To not necessarily use religion and tell the truth. Repentance, but without religious overtone.
from "Flight of the Imtruder":
"I hope you realize that now is the time to come to Jesus." Meaning that if the aircrew being court-martialed spilled their guts off the record before the proceeding started, they might stand a better chance of a favorable opinion. Could somewhat be compared to plea bargaining.

when a religious person realizes a non-religious (or religious) person is in need of God's love and help, they say this to tell them to come over to christianity (or to re-find God).

1. James, you suicide! Come to Jesus!
2. Oh, baby, come to Jesus, COME TO JESUS!
