I guess in this physical world I've never been in a condition where I needed to escape (I have had to go and hide from a couple of tornadoes) - but many have. POWs escape from their captors. Hostages escape from their abductors. People escape the devastation of an earthquake, hurricane or flood. Escape means there was a life critical/threatening situation that had to be averted. Leaving was the only way to survive.
There is still another threat out there. How about the evil of the world? How about the temptations to do evil that are out there in front of us every day and put us in peril - both body and soul. How do we escape that?
Peter says it comes by knowing our Savior (2 Peter 2:20). A knowledge of the Savior is the way of escape. It is provided both by and through the Savior.
He holds the door open so we can escape. Let's get out of here!
Be Strong and Courageous,
L.T.
