The Harrowing of Hell
My friend Matthew Greydanus recently taught a Sunday school class on the doctrine of the harrowing of hell. He sent me his copious outline, as well as the URL for this site, which he used for some of his historical research.
It all started when Matt's church decided to change the Apostles' Creed to say, "He descended into the grave." This bothered Matt, so he talked to his pastor, who invited him over to discuss things further. Though his pastor wasn't convinced of Matt's position, he thought Matt made a good case and invited him to teach Sunday school.
I'm always encouraged to hear of such openness in a TR church. As Matt likes to point out, his church is so TR that they have "pot providence suppers" - as evidenced on the front page of their website!
