Subject: we only barely get into heaven by Jesus |
Bible Note: Nor have I. The redeemed don't 'just barely' go to heaven, nor the unredeemed 'just barely' go to hell. The regenerated in Christ don't make it to heaven 'just barely' -- by the skin of their teeth so to speak, but by the blood of the Lamb. We are saved by the grace of God through faith in the Lord Jesus. Fully and generously and completely. Not just barely. --Hank |
