What happened to Jesus when He died? That was one of the questions on here. What happened to Him when he died? Did He go to hell?
Didn't He go to hell for three days?
Okay, how are we gonna find out what happened to Him? You can talk to Him; have you got any answers to that? Has He told you what the answer is?
Oh, no, we just wait.
Err. He has told us right here! Okay. So, when you want to find your answers, look in the Bible. Anybody have an idea where we could look in the Bible and find out what the answer is of where…
I'm thinking the New Testament.
New Testament! Hey, that's pretty cool. Okay, turn to Luke, Luke chapter 23. You with me? Start reading in verse 39, somebody.
Then one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed Him, saying, “If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us." But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong." Then he said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”
Hmm! Where's the three days in hell? Is the thief gonna have to go to hell with Him for three days? No. No, what's the answer? What happened to Christ the moment He died?
He went to heaven.
Why?
Because He's one with God.
ALRIGHT! Oh, man, what an answer! Why did Jesus got to heaven to be with God the moment died?--because He's one with God, and where God is, He is. What's gonna happen to you when you die? You're gonna go to heaven to be with Christ. Why? We're one with Christ and where He is, we will be. So, what's this thing about Christ going to hell? Where'd you get that? You got it out of the Apostle's Creed, which just doesn't happen to be Biblical, unfortunately.
