He went to visit spirits
In the realm of the dead
And he preached the gospel to them
People who died during Noah’s flood
And presumably all the other souls
That died in Old Testament times
They were asleep
Jesus came to wake them up
From the dead
And he proclaimed them alive in spirit
Saved!
So he took them to heaven to be with him
People who used to be evil
People who died in their sins
People who never heard the gospel
He saved them too
There is no one outside of his reach!
1 Peter 3:19-22 & 4:6
