Bible Question (short): Searching for the truth |
Question (full): Hi Tim Moran, Thanks for your comments which have triggered my mind to ask the following questions. First and foremost, where is hades and how does the soul know the way to hades after death? In view of what Jesus said in John3:13"No man has ever gone into Heaven" you speculated by saying that both Elijah and Enoch went to hades.But hades is a temporary waiting place reserved for souls of dead persons only. So, my dear Tim, are we not in a dilemma? I also infer from your comments that the O,T. Saints in hades were taken up by Christ to be with the Lord.Does this mean that the paradise side of hades is now empty and closed? If this is so,the righteous believers now will be with the Lord immediately after death? And if this is so,then the big judgement day is meant for the unbelievers only? Trusting that you will oblige again by forwarding your comments. With love in Christ. FytRobert |
