Daily Bread - Oct 5 2006
1 Peter 4:18 - “And if the righteous are barely saved where will the ungodly and sinners appear?”
Certainly, the idea of the righteous being barely saved must be understood in the light of God’s absolute Holiness and Purity. It also should result in a sobriety in the believer to realize the urgency of our need for God’s mercy and protection in the midst of a wicked and perverse world. Upon hearing that the “righteous are barley saved” we should be left with a certainty that there is no room to justify any sort of compromise with sin and ungodliness.
Blessings,

- I started this blog back in 2005, but in 2006 began dedicating it solely for the purpose of posting email messages called, Daily Bread, sent out Monday through Saturday by my pastor, Mark Spitsbergen. These daily emails contain fresh revelation that Mark gets from the Word of God by the Holy Spirit for that day for the church that God has called him to pastor, Abiding Place. 1 Peter 4:11 says, "If any man speak let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister let him do it as of the ability which God gives that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ to whom be praise and dominion forever and ever. Amen." Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, (John 14:6), and He says, "The words that I speak to you are Spirit, and they are Life." (John 6:63). For the Word of God is quick (alive), and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12).
