Did Jesus really descend into hell? What does ecumenism mean for Christian unity? Can non-Messianic Jews be saved? In this episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Mike Bird tackle these complex theological questions, exploring the early church’s interpretation of Jesus’ descent, the importance of Christian unity, and the role of Jewish identity in salvation history. They also discuss the chronology of Jesus’ baptism and how historical context shapes biblical interpretation. If you’ve ever wrestled with these topics, this episode offers deep insights grounded in Scripture.
