There is a lot of that today. It is very important for a believer to know what God says from His own Word. It is my understanding that Jesus did go to Hell after His death on the Cross but He went to take the keys of death and dispatch with Abraham's Bosom (Hades).
Acts 2:24 - "But God raised Him from the dead, putting an end to the agony of death, since it was impossible for Him to be held in its power."
Ephesians 4:9 - "(Now this expression, “He ascended,” what does it mean except that He also had descended into the lower parts of the earth?"
Revelation 1:18 - "and the living One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades."
What say you, my esteemed brother in Christ?
Actually the Bible tells us the Jesus went to the "Paradise" compartment of Hades. That is where He told the thief on the cross that he would be after he died. "Today you will be with Me in Paradise".
The part of Torments where Mrs. Myers said Jesus went to to pay the penalty for our sin does not exist in the Bible. Jesus did not go to Torments.
Hades is divided by a "Gulf". One side is Torments where the lost souls of all eternity are torments in fire until judgment day.
Paradise is where the souls of the saints of the Old Test. were located. When Jesus went to the "lower oats of the earth" He descended to the Paradise side and when He ascended to heaven He took all of the souls there with Him to heaven.
Today, when a believer dies he goes immediately to heaven and there is now no souls in Paradise in Hades.
Allow me to prove all of that in Luke 16:22-31............
"And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
23
And in hell he lift up his eyes,
being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am t
ormented in this flame.
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
26
And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this
place of torment.
29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead."
Ephesians 4:8-9............
Therefore He says: When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, And gave gifts to men.”
Now this, “He ascended”—what does it mean but that He also first descended into the lower parts of the earth?"
"Albert Barnes Bible Commentary" explains, and it is what I have believed for many years that.........
" When Christ ascended to heaven, he triumphed ever all his foes. It was a complete victory over the malice of the great enemy of God, and over those who had sought his life. But he did more. He rescued those who were the captives of Satan, and led them in triumph. Man was held by Satan as a prisoner. His chains were around him. Christ rescued the captive prisoner, and designed to make him a part of his triumphal procession into heaven, that thus the victory might be complete - triumphing not only over the great foe himself, but swelling his procession with the attending hosts of those who “had been” the captives of Satan, now rescued and redeemed."
