Jesus was not unclear in His instructions to His disciples. His desire was to "teach them" plainly that He was about to suffer, be murdered, and rise again from the dead. He was teaching clearly. They "did not understand" what He was saying. It wasn't because Jesus was not making it clear. It was because they could imagine this even being a possibility.
Today, few people actually believe in hell. We scoff at the disciples not understanding what Jesus was clearly teaching about his suffering, death and resurrection, yet WE reject His clear teaching on Hell. Jesus taught more on hell than heaven. He believed people would actually go there forever after they died. He taught that anyone who sins will suffer an eternal hell apart from faith in Him.
Don't just believe what you want! Believe what is true. Hell is for real. Everyone does NOT go to heaven.
