Bible Question:
Where did people go when they died before Jesus died for our sins? |
Bible Answer: Sheol(OT) - the place of the departed. See Luke 16:19-26 for a description that Jesus gave. Sheol, or Hades is divided into two parts: torments and Abrahams' bosom. In the OT, those who "believed God" were declared righteous. Rom 4:3 Recall also the words of Jesus to the believing thief on the cross, "Today you will be with me in Paradise." Lk 23:43 I suspect that perhaps Jesus did not use the words "Abraham's bosom" because He was going to be there, and where God is, is that not Paradise?!!! Blessings, mommapbs |
