On more than one occasion, it has been mentioned in these pages that those who delay attending to their eternal salvation will be forever disappointed.
This warning has always centered around the idea that those who “wait and see” will NOT be exhibiting the faith required for eternal salvation. Faith will not be needed if one can see with one’s eyes those events which announce the return of Jesus Christ.
“For we are saved by hope [faith]: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?”
–Romans 8:24
This contention has also centered around the thought that “Eternal salvation is NOT a Plan B.”
One additional point on this subject was recently brought to mind: that there are a great many who do NOT consider eternal salvation an option.
ANY option.
To these deceived folks, eternal salvation is not Plan A, Plan B or Plan Z.
To these deceived folks, eternal salvation is not among their options when God judgment becomes apparent for all to see.
These lost and wayward souls are among the most rebellious of all of God’s creation. It is these who ESPECIALLY need the prayers of the believer.
“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men”
–1TIMOTHY 2:1
Man is saved through the abundant mercy of God.
“And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.”
–Exodus 33:19
“For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.”
–Romans 9:15
The believer should pray for these children of disobedience, that their eyes be opened so eternal salvation is AT LEAST an option to be considered.
It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
