Recently I have been speaking in our Sunday School class about the doctrine of Endless Punishment (or as it is more commonly called the doctrine of Hell). One of the questions that arose during that class was did Christ desend into hell after he died on the cross of Calvary.
Well Daniel Hyde addresses that question in his book, 'In Defense of the Descent'. The publishers descriptions says:
'The Apostles’ Creed claims that Christ “descended into hell,” but do we really believe that? Should we believe that?
In this book, Daniel R. Hyde analyzes this controversial claim, bringing valuable light to this long confessed doctrine. He presents the arguments raised against the descent clause, discusses the various understanding of it throughout church history, explains how the Reformed churches have adopted it, and demonstrated the benefits of retaining it as a point of our Christian confession today.
For those who question why Christians would believe in the descent of Christ, In Defense of the Descent is an informative and helpful guide.'
On the program today, my guest will be Daniel Hyde - pastor of the Oceanside United Reformed Church (URCNA) in Carlsbad/Oceanside, California.
