was there another place of eternal abode besides heaven and hell? Because when Jesus was dead for 3 days it?

Question

says he went to preach to the "spirits" in prision. Hell is not a prison, for in there is hope of release, and heaven is not prision. The spirits were alive, and were that of the old testament saints like Abraham, Noah etc. So, it logically follows that if God created this place besides heaven and hell, there is also a place scripture points out that you will not be released until the last farthinling (penny) Purgatory exists out of the mercy of God, because without it a person when he dies must be perfect and without any deflement (Rev.) and so then the only place for that person would be hell. But purgatory is a place of purification after one dies!!

Answer 1

There was a place of the dead - Hades or Sheol - as opposed to the place of the damned. Hades was the place where the souls of the just awaited Christ's redemptive death, which opened the gates of Heaven.

Answer 2

Jesus went to paradise for 3 days and 3 nights.What are you talking about prison????
Jesus took the captives from paradise to heaven.
Heaven and hell are it.
Anyone whos name is NOT found written in the Lambs book of life WILL BE cast into the lake of fire

Answer 3

You are a fool to believe such catholic garbage. There is no such place as Purgatory. There is noone good enough to be allowed into heaven, and there never will be.

We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Only by His sacrifice for our sins are we worthy of heaven. No other reason. You cannot be purified after death. That is not Biblical, and is a lie. It cheapens what Christ did with the sacrifice of His life for our sins.

You either live your life sanctified unto God, and have enough faith in Christ to live a holy life, as He instructed, or you will be cast into the lake of fire. Do not believe these catholic lies and false doctrines. You are in danger of hellfire for eternity, if you continue to follow this band of idolaters and their doctrines of men.

Answer 4

See how Jesus portrays the afterlife is his story of Lazarus and the rich man

Answer 5

"Comunication with the Spirit World of God - It's Laws and Purpose" Johannes Greber (amazon)
Christ returned to Paradise, where lucifer and we all who followed him fell from. And "lucifer fell to the Earth". So we ar the embodiment of those spirits incarnated as humans who are progressing back to Heaven again. Which is why it's so important to ask Christ to forgive us our sin of abandoning Him under lucifer's leadership.
The spirit is either alive or dead, which is the meaning when Christ said, "let the dead bury their dead" (let the spiritually dead people take care of those things that interest them if they choose).
Christ descended to hell (the realm of the dead) as a spirit, and armed with the power from God, overthrew lucifer, to free those humans and spirits who longed to return to Christ and to Heaven.
So this life is a lesson to learn how to act as those in Heaven. As we pass those tests of love and purity, we continue on to Heavn, and if not, we re-incarnate (return to a human lifetime) to be tested again, and again, until we pass those tests.
God is loving and merciful and will allow us as many times to pass those tests as needed, until we pass this realm and back into Paradise...

Answer 6

You have just answered all of your own questions.
My question to you is this: Do you wish to escape the illusion or are you content to remain in it?

Answer 7

Isn't there supposed to be a place called limbo that is neither heaven nor hell - where souls wait while it is decided where they will end up?

Answer 8

Jesus traveled into the future and took a look at the present day world, it made him very sad.
