"If the righteous are BARELY SAVED, what will become of the ungodly and wicked!
What does become of the ungodly and wicked people? If a person is not Saved by Jesus Christ, where will they go when their life ends? What is the second death? Have you heard and understood that if you are born again a second time, you only die once? What does the One Truth Today mean that the righteous are BARELY SAVED? These are all questions that every one needs to know the answers to. By being "born again", with a new spiritual body, you will avoid the second death of the non believer's. You will be saved by God and not suffer separation and eternal damnation forever! The Word tells us that it is appointed unto every man to die once and then the judgement. If you are not born again, you will not be Saved and you will die the second death and you will be judged. The righteous are barely saved by believing and accepting the Lords gift of new life.
We do not like to think about being separated from one another, but that is what will occur as a result of your choices in this life. If you are not Saved by God you will suffer the second death and you are really a "dead man walking", right now. Non believer's are unaware and have not heard or understood the Truth of the Lord. They have rejected the gift of new life that is available to everyone. God has chosen them, but, they have rejected God. God does not want even one soul to perish or be lost. Everyone has had the choice to accept or reject the Lord and their are consequences to your choice. Eternal Life and death and damnation hang in the balance. Have you been BARELY SAVED?
Peter confirms this concept of the righteous being barely saved in our scripture for today. It is not anything that we do that leads to eternal life. It is our choice to accept or reject the Gift of God that will determine our final destination. God has mercy on those that are His children and He allows everyone the free will to accept or reject Him. That is the essence of the "Gospel". Jesus Christ Saves! The Lord is our Salvation, if we accept and believe in Him. We need to be "born again", to avoid the second and eternal death. Believer's must tell everyone that you know about the "Good News", so that they can make an intelligent decision. You too can be BARELY SAVED!
