The notion that Christ had a preaching ministry in Hades/Sheol is one of the best myths I've heard. It's not scriptural. Do you also believe in Purgatory, the related teaching?
Hello GW,
This notion is not a major belief- more of a footnote issue - but as it is written in 1 Peter 3
18For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit, 19through whom also he went and preached to the spirits in prison 20who disobeyed long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built.
In 1 Peter 3:19- there is a case that Jesus went to Hell (after he was crucified). Not only did He return victorious with a whole chain of the conquered but he also preached to those who died.
And, no, we do not believe in Purgatory. Except for Hal though LOL
Cheers,
YM
