What Happened in the Underworld?

What Was Jesus Doing In Hell? First, He went to bear our judgment; second, to put the devil in his place. The irony is that this story has lain in plain view for two thousand years, yet the devil has succeeded in blinding men from seeing it. For it describes how Jesus gave Satan the beating up of his life in Hell. There are a handful of New Testament Scriptures which bear testimony to the accuracy of this story. But Jesus Himself directs us to make a thorough study of the Old Testament prophecies, which provide a graphic and complete account of His experiences on the cross and in the Underworld. Prophecy is writing about events before they happen! It is clear that the Author of the Bible, the Holy Spirit, chose to give the most vivid and compelling version of the story in the Old Testament hundreds of years in advance! For that was also a way of proving to the world that the Bible is the Word of God. And He threw in a judicious sprinkling of New Testament verses to confirm what had been prophesied. The evidence highlighted in this book has been neglected for too long. It needs to be widely read, studied and discussed in Christian circles.
