righteous man
2 Peter 2:8
2:8 righteous man. Despite his unfortunate end, Lot is recognized by Peter as having been “just” (II Peter 2:7) and “righteous.” Even believers may become “castaways” (I Corinthians 9:27) in this life (even though they are still “just and “righteous” through faith in Christ and therefore will be in heaven in the future life) if they persist in a materialistic life style.
