Let’s read this passage together with verses 18 and 20: I Peter 3:18-20 “For Christ also died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, so that He might bring us ...read more

    It seems to me that there are 2 issues that Christians face today that Jesus addresses here in this passage. The first is the question as to how we’re rating as a Christian. That is are we good enough for God to be happy with us? Are we good enough that God would listen to our prayers? How ...read more
