Subject: Was Jesus a captive? |
Bible Note: Speakdtruth, I really like your answer to I think it was your question also. I have a friend whom belong to Jehovas Witnessess, and thier beleived that Jesus Christ Died both Body and Spirit. I would like to take this opportunity to raise this question for you and I am very greatful if you can explain my querry. First of all I would like to know if for you is the death of spirit of Jesus Christ, meaning no existence? My question are: If the spirit of Jesus Christ died how he can he preach in hell? 1Pe 3:18 ΒΆ For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: 18. 1Pe 3:19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; Also it was mentioned that God cast angels into hell: 2Pe 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; If Jesus Christ did not exist when He decended to hell? why the rich man exist. I dont think Jesus Christ will teach different from reality? Here in the next passages, in the parables of Jesus Christ when the rich man died he tormented in hell, meaning he exist there because he feel the fire of hell? Lu 16:22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; 22. Lu 16:23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 23. Lu 16:24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. It is not a debate, I am also sometimes tormented to this kind of circumstances. speak the truth, Johnny |
