Two Journeys Luke 16 - Rich man and Lazarus Luke 16 - Rich man and Lazarus vv vv When Old Testament was translated into Greek, Sheol was always translated Hades When Old Testament was translated into Greek, Sheol was always translated Hades This was the world of departed spirits This was the world of departed spirits

Two Journeys Sheol or Hades observations Sheol or Hades observations – A place distinguished from the grave (Is. 14:9) – Sheol was spoken of a shadowy place of darkness - a pit (Ez. 26:20) – People united with ancestors but there were different sides. One went to be with ancestors (Gen. 15:15 - but in Luke 16 notice he was separated from the wicked)

Two Journeys Sheol/Hades Observations Sheol/Hades Observations – On one side there was comfort on the other agony (a foretaste of hell) – THE DESTINIES WERE FIXED

Two Journeys AD - After Christ Came AD - After Christ Came – Jesus’ death and resurrection changed everything for believers – During the time of His death and ultimate resurrection, Jesus entered Hades and emptied out the “saved” side - that is carried their sprits with Him to heaven (Acts 2:31; Eph. 4:8-10)

Two Journeys AD - After Christ AD - After Christ – For those who are not Christians Body deteriorates Body deteriorates Spirit to Hades - still place of lost departed spirits where there is suffering (2 Peter 2:9) Spirit to Hades - still place of lost departed spirits where there is suffering (2 Peter 2:9) Resurrection - Acts 24:15 Resurrection - Acts 24:15 Judgment - Rev. 20:11-15 Judgment - Rev. 20:11-15 Hell Hell
