1 | compasionate God versus vengeful God | Lev 18:25 | JCrichton | 140214 | ||
Hi, Steve! So Peter has a revelation that Christ is preaching to those spirit in prison (men and women) through the various disciples... and that those people in prison are caught up with erroneous beliefs that survived the flood when only Noah and his direct offsprings and their mates were saved? So who passed on these erroneous values, was not all life outside of the ark terminated? God Bless! Angel |

Hello Angel, I just realized something while reading your post. You think that "prison" is a physical jail or dungeon. That's not the case. The spirits now in prison are angels who had left their proper place (Jude 6). It's not talking about people. Steve |

Hi, Steve! I do not believe that Peter is speaking of a physical prison--my posts do not claim/infer that! When Peter speaks about the spirits he is speaking about those who died under the Old Covenant and did not know Jesus (remember that to God our physical death is not the end of existence!)... "The spirits now in prison are angels who had left their proper place (Jude 6). It's not talking about people." I cannot see how you can come to such conclusions... the angels that rebelled are as the Ancient Serpent (Satan), they refuse to humble themselves to God (Revelation 12:3-4, 7-9, 12). These angels were not misguided and lacking understanding! These angels fought against God and, once defeated, they still refused to humble themselves... rather, they brough the assault to the weakest members of God's realm: humanity! Peter, in 1 Peter 3:18-20, 4:6, is speaking on the fulfillment of Jesus' Salvation offered to all the creatures of God; these spirits are those who died not truly cognizant of God's Promise (Salvation in Christ Jesus). God Bless! Angel |

Hello Angel, I stand corrected. Your post did seem as if you were speaking of a physical prison. 1 Pet 3 is not an offer of salvation. The passage does not say that. 1 Pet 4 is speaking of the spiritually dead, not the physically dead. Steve |
