Bible Question: Why did Jesus go to Hell While He was dead in the grave? |
Bible Answer: Hi, Spikebogwan! 1 Peter 3:18-22 clearly answers your query. When Jesus died on the cross only His physical body was dead. Believing that Jesus is God can help you understand the cited passage. Jesus died for all sin once and for all. He was quite adamant about that: he who believes in Me even though dead shall live (paraphrase). How would those who died before Jesus' incarnation believe in Him otherwise? Jesus' words were not figurative nor was Peter's revelation! God Bless! |
