Do you believe literally that Jesus Christ went to Hell for a short while after He was executed?

Question

Why did He need to do this?

Answer 1

if he is the real god, it doesnt matter to go to hell or heaven.

Answer 2

I think the most uneducated notion is when people take the bible seriously, has it never occurred to sane people that maybe the Jesus story is just "remake" of common Greek Apotheoses? I mean look at the evidence. Mark was the orginal untampered story of Jesus, before Constantine went and edited it, in the historical event known and recorded as the NIcene Creed, it was in it's original form and Jesus never rose from the dead. You can pick up any bible and look up Mark 16:8 and it says that the oldest versions of the story omit the resurrection story, also in Matthew 27:52-53, it speaks of undead saints walking the streets of Jerusalem after Jesus was crucified, but strangely enough, all the other gospels completely forgot to include that in their accounts. Another thing is the Matthew resurrection story, "An angel came down and moved the rock causing a tremendous earthquake, striking the two guards with fear until they fell dead." However none of the other gospels include any divine intervention with the tomb of Jesus. Why is this? Because it never happened. It's just another fictional apotheosis like the Egyptian Resurrection of Osiris.


Also, to the one guy that talked about the inherent sins from Adam to Jesus, what kind of god would deny entrance into heaven for (what you consider) a few thousand years even though they believed in him? It's because it never happened, read a book and actually "understand" what you're reading. It's the same as reading Harry Potter and believing in it and making some insane occult practice devoted to it.

Answer 3

Yes, Jesus did indeed go to Hell for a short while after he was executed. This is because he had to lead a covert black-ops mission into the inner realms to rescue all the millions of innocent pagan babies who Satan had previously claimed as his own. Jesus put on this mad disguise, yo, of himself as just some run-of-the-mill demon/guard type--sort of like when Han and Luke throw on the Storm Trooper outfits so they can go whooping a** inside of the Death Star. Because this mission was 100 % noise discipline, Jesus couldn't use his AK-47 and had to dispatch all those demon bitches with his handy K-bar. He was slicing bitches' throats left and right, yo, and there was this one exciting point where he had to turn a tiny little piece of thread from his robe into a full-size lasso so he could hook it onto something and then swing across this great pit of fire that the innocent pagan babies were stuck on the other side of. Then all the innocent pagan babies grabbed a hold of Jesus--his robe, his sandal straps, his ****ing beard and hair, anywhere they could grab him, because there were like millions of the little crumb snatchers, and then Jesus swung back over the big pit of fire with all those innocent pagan babies clawing onto him. That's when satan himself got up in Jesus' grill, so Jesus used some old school Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do on him.

Answer 4

We know that Jesus went to set those free who had already believed in Him before He died. From Adam all the way to Jesus Christ there were those who believed but Heaven was not open to them yet. They were waiting for Him to die. Where were they waiting. I don't know? The Bible does not say exactly where. Once Jesus died He set them free to enter Heaven.

Answer 5

He didn't. He went to a place called Paradise, a place where the righteous souls rest, learn and prepare for the resurrection. While He was there, he organized good spirits to visit the wicked spirits in Prison so that they could still be taught the Gospel. Jesus did not go himself to the spirits in prison but rather set up missionary work to those spirits as recorded in Peter in the New Testament.

Answer 6

Many Christians have the wrong impression of what happened here. The question takes a bit of proof and discussion.

So, here the answer has been precooked:

Answer 7

Quandaries including this one are the extensive-unfold reasons that I ceased being a Catholic and found out that i did no longer have faith in god. i purely can no longer fathom the thought there is a god available that disregards the surely morality of folk, and as a exchange focuses on no remember if or no longer they suspect in him--this is even greater advantageous unfair by way of putting of a guy or woman's start. while you're born in eire you're Catholic; Pakistan, your Muslim; China, your Buddhist; etc. in case you prefer to have faith in God, that is great. that is purely that i won't.

Answer 8

Top Ten Signs You're a Fundamentalist Christian




10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.

7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!

6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.

4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."


3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.

2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.

1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.
