Bible Question:
what happened to all the people who died before jesus died on the cross? Since jesus died to give us eternal life , the dead that i mentioned could not have survived death. |
Bible Answer: These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. [14] For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. [15] If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return. [16] But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city. Hebrews 11:13-16 (ESV) Answer to the question: "what happened to all the people who died before jesus died on the cross?" |
