What Paul is clearly saying is that if anyone is worthy of being saved, they will be saved. At that point many Christians get very anxious, saying that absolutely no one is worthy of being saved.

It is possible for someone who does not know Jesus to be saved.

In the tradition of St. John of the Cross, we can learn to survive and derive benefits from the soul's dark night.
