Christianity has been present in Japan since the mid-1500s and yet it is still not widely followed in Japan. Could it be because we insist on explaining the Gospel in terms of guilt-innocence instead of shame-honor? Shintō the Gospel's Gate develops two major redemptive analogies; introduces an indigenous name for the Creator God; the Shintō concept of sin; and solves a 3,400 year old biblical mystery. Part one was formerly published as On Ancient Paths: From the Garden to the Grave. Examining the parallels between the Hebrew and Shintō understanding of sin, part one develops the Story of Tsumi, the Shame Triad, and the indigenous Japanese name for the Creator God. Part two, From Death to Life, is new material and is nearly two thirds of the contents of Shintō the Gospel's Gate. It takes a deeper look at the use of Amenominakanushi as the indigenous name for the Creator God. And it examines parallels in Shinto and Hebrew rituals pointing toward God's plan of salvation through Jesus of Nazareth. Please note: this book contains Hebrew, Japanese, and Greek fonts which may not display correctly on all devices. However, transliterations into English characters have been provided.
