| Summary: | The author discusses the belief of Jesus Christ's postmortem evangelism, also known as second-chance theory, by preaching to the dead after descending into Hades and thereby bringing salvation, a belief which is being advocated in Japan. Through the exegesis of the bible verses 18b-20a and the verse 6 of 1 Peter 3 and 1 Peter 4 respectively, he presents arguments which support this belief. The author concludes by noting the relationship between 1 Peter and 1 Enoch. |
