Description

Sermon #289


To say that Jesus descended to the dead seems like a redundant statement after affirming that he was crucified, dead, and buried.  To say that Jesus descended to hell (another translation of the Greek version of the Apostles' Creed) seems like a theological conundrum.  How could Jesus, the Son of God, sinless and holy, descend to the place of torment where people who deny God and refuse His grace end up?  Although we as Methodists do not regularly recite this affirmation in the Creed, it bears examiniation.
