Few Will Be Saved? The Most Important Question in the Bible

Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, asks the question that every soul must face: Will I be saved? In a world where nearly every funeral assumes heaven, the Scriptures — and the saints — give us a sobering reminder: “Narrow is the road that leads to life, and few find it.” (Mt 7:14)

But what does that mean? Are only a few saved? How can God desire all to be saved (1 Tim 2:4) if so many seem lost? Fr. Chris walks us through the words of Jesus, St. Faustina, and Church teaching to uncover the truth about salvation — not to bring despair, but to awaken hearts to the urgency of conversion.

Salvation is not about simply “being a good person.” We are called to repent, be baptized, receive the Eucharist, live in faith, and love both God and neighbor. Grace is freely given, but it must be accepted and lived. Christ alone saves, and He calls us to follow Him on the narrow way — through His Church, His Sacraments, and His mercy.

We also hear the story of former atheist, Howard Storm, who experienced hell in a near-death experience.
