HOW SHALL WE ESCAPE?
Salvation is free because the Lord Jesus came to pay for the price. The salvation of our souls is very costly, yet Christ out of love for us through His blood purchased us to His Heavenly Kingdom. He was mocked, wounded, spitted upon, stripped naked, beaten, thirsty, nailed to the cross, etc. When we receive Him into our lives and walk according to His Words, we do not pay for this price again. We just receive it in the form of grace.
How can we escape if we neglect the salvation which was bought through this shameful death of the Lord? If we fail to receive, abide in Him and hold unto our faith till the end, we shall never escape His wrath and severe judgement. Grace isn't a ticket to sin, but to aid us live for God. Those who neglected this salvation is paying for the price in hell. Why should you go to hell when the Lord had already made provisions for you to enter Heaven?
Hebrews 2:2-3
For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just reward, how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him.
