One of the thieves who was crucified with Him. The first thief goaded Jesus saying that if he was 'the Son of God' he could save both himself and them. However the second thief recognised Jesus' innocence and his own guilt and asked Jesus to remember him when he came into his kingdom. As a result of his turning to Christ, Jesus then promised that that very day the thief would be with him, in paradise.

Yes, even on your deathbed you can repent and accept Jesus and receive God's mercy. The best example of this is the thief who was crucified next to Jesus and who asked Christ to remember him when He came into His heavenly kingdom. Jesus responded that the thief would be with Him in paradise that day.

Is Luke 23 verse 43 about the thief on the cross being with Jesus 'today' in paradise properly punctuated?
The "Paradise" in question was Jesus' reply to the thief's plea to Him to remember him:"...when you come into your Kingdom." (verse 42)The age-old argument among men of the placement of the punctuation around the word "today" seems to have superceded the context of what was being said. The punctuation [which was added when the original manuscripts were translated] takes care of itself when the subject of their conversation is understood.The remote possibility of entering into the Kingdom of God was the thief's concern. Evidently, he had heard Jesus' speak to the crowds at some time in the past... and he heard [and believed] Jesus' message about the "good news" [gospel] of the coming Kingdom that He will establish on earth, according to the prophecies.While the world, today, remains blinded to the Truth of Jesus' message to mankind regarding His coming Kingdom... the thief grasped it in his mind and heart, and BELIEVED IT! He was talking about WHEN JESUS WOULD ENTER INTO HIS KINGDOM that the thief humbly asked Jesus to "remember him."And WHEN did Jesus enter into His Kingdom? HE HASN'T DONE IT YET! It's still a future event that awaits Jesus' return. The THRONE of Jesus' Kingdom is KING DAVID's THRONE, which used to be in Jerusalem."...call His name Jesus. He shall be Great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the LORD God shall GIVE UNTO HIM THE THRONE OF HIS FATHER DAVID..." (Luke 1:31-32 KJV).Jesus Christ is coming back to re-establish David's throne in Jerusalem... to restore God's Kingdom to the earth! But it hasn't happened yet.So, neither Jesus nor the thief were in the "Paradise" of the Kingdom of God THAT DAY! That day... they BOTH DIED AND WERE BURIED!And to THIS DAY... neither Jesus nor the thief is in Christ's Kingdom, yet.So, the punctuation of the passage should be such that it should not be interpreted to mean that Jesus and the thief were both in Christ's Kingdom on THAT VERY DAY OF BOTH OF THEIR DEATHS... they couldn't be because they were both dead. But that Jesus put the Humble, Faithful, Believing thief's mind to rest regarding the future time when Jesus would establish His throne and Kingdom on earth [a time yet future to us, today], in Jerusalem, the place from whence David ruled:"I solemnly say to you this very day, YOU WILL BE IN PARADISE [the Kingdom of which you speak] WITH ME."
