Did
Jesus descend into hell to suffer for
our sins? Many believe that Jesus
descended into hell in order to pay in
full the ransom for the sin of mankind.
The answer to this doctrine can only be
found by rightly dividing the word of
truth.
Before Christ was crucified, both the
lost and the saved went to
Hades
(Heb.
Sheol).
Hades was divided into the place of
torment and paradise (also known as
Abraham's bosom -
Luke 16:19,31). When Jesus hung
on the cross, He consoled the repentant
thief that he would be in paradise with
Him on that very day. Christ descended
to Abraham's bosom and lead captivity
captive... that is, to remove the Old
Testament saints from Abraham's bosom
and lead them to heaven.
There was no need for Christ to suffer
in hell (as some believe He did).
Why? We are not saved by His
sufferings... we are saved by His
death (1
Corinthians 15:3). There is
no indication nor implication from God's
Word that Jesus went to hell for our
sins. He went to Calvary to DIE for our
sins.
What
can wash away my sin?
NOTHING BUT THE
BLOOD OF JESUS!
Sincerely, Dr. Arthur Belanger
