The difficulty of being saved

1 Peter 4:18  And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

Not all who we think are good people will be saved
Not all who say they are Christians will be saved
Not all who are worshiping regularly in a group will be saved
Not all who are members of a church will be saved
Not all who are members in a strict and true church will be saved

Therefore judge
Judgment must begin at the house of God
You must get the new birth right and faith on the Lord right or be damned
But no one can get it right by his own will power and effort
Only God can produce that rightness of faith
But the basis of salvation is not man's rightness of faith or his own personal righteousness, but the faith which is of Christ and the righteousness imputed to the sinner which is alien to the sinner
