    I don’t know if I’m remembering this correctly. But I thought the church taught that everyone went below (don’t remember the exact name of the place) and between Jesus’s death and resurrection, he took the keys to heaven and he’ll and preached to those who were not alive to hear his message and then those who accepted him were saved.

      Depends on the christian branch you got taught in.

      I used to be a roman catholic, They belief that with jesus’ death the primal sinn was absolved. If you accept jesus as the lord the savior son of god, you never will go to hell. Sinning puts you in purgatory, a hell-light kinda, for a duration to punish you for sinning. But after that you go to heaven regardless.

      Before jesus everyone went to tell due to the first sinn commited by adam and eve. A few exceptions. Moses was promised heaven if he stayed faithful, but because of his doubt at the end, he got condemed to hell, but was allowed to see the sacret land before he died.

      Sort of. Before Jesus, the gates of heaven were closed for reasons. After he was crucified and paid the price for original sin he opened the gates of heaven and saved all the people in hell.
