how can I ask questions in Logos?
This is a specific question.
OT believers are in Sheol, Abraham's bosom
Now I'm guessing they are in heaven where we go when we die
What does the Bible say about what happened to those believers in Sheol who are now in heaven?
They are in heaven now, right?
How would I look for an answer in Logos?

As regarding a Logos resourse, what are OT believers'? If you're speaking to saints, most NT commentaries discuss in the final chapter of Matthew.

Not sure what your looking for.... but...
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. - John 14:6
Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. - Galatians 3:24
If the OT Law brought one to Jesus... and that one kept the Law as best he could... then ....
That might give you a starting place... definitely maybe? [8-|]
And there are verses supporting Abraham's bosum ....
Some people agrue that a person in Christ will die twice... once on this earth and once during the final judgement (when Christ comes again). I think it is better said that one in Christ will go through two (2) judgements... one when they die (either Abraham's bosom - Act 2:27, Luk 23:43 - or place of torment - 2Pe 2:4, Jude 6) then again when Christ comes back to this earth (the final judgement Mat 25:31-46).
Rev 2:10 implies, if not teaches, faithful people will go to Abraham's bosom.
I tried to give a good starting point in the questions you asked.... My theory is.... the Bible is always right! [8-|]
xn = Christan man=man -- Acts 11:26 "....and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch".

I can't find the original post but I just found this relevant Logos resource “He Descended to the Dead”: An Evangelical Theology of Holy Saturday | Logos Bible Software Now if this reference gets to the right person . . .
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
