The thief, often referred to as the "good thief" or Dismas, showed his faith in Jesus while being crucified alongside Him. He acknowledged his sins and recognized Jesus's innocence, asking Him to remember him when He entered His kingdom. Jesus responded with the promise that the thief would be with Him in paradise that very day, highlighting the power of repentance and faith. This encounter emphasizes the theme of redemption and grace in Christianity.
The thief on the cross beleived in Jesus and was saved.
This sentence was said by Jesus when He was Crucified and it was told to the thief crucified beside Him (on His right).It means that after the death of Jesus and the death of the thief crucified in His right,this thief will be with Jesus in the paradise as it is the place to which christians,good Christians, go after their death as a place to wait before the last day and after this day,good people will go from the paradise to the Eternal life with Jesus in the Heavens.Jesus said this to the thief crucified to His right because he accepted Jesus as a God and a Savior...
This was said by Jesus Christ to the thief who repented on the cross.
Two criminals, often called the "good" thief and the "bad" thief. The "good" thief admitted his sin and accepted Jesus on the cross. The"good thief" asked to come with Jesus to be with him; Jesus told him today you will be with me in paradise. He is said to be the first Saint as he went directly to Heaven by God's order.
Luke 23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, "To DAY" shalt thou be with me in paradise. Jesus did not ascend until several days had passed. Therefore the logical conclusion is, the repentant thief went to paradise ahead of Jesus;
Jesus was in Paradise. Remember on the cross He turned to the thief on the right and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise. See Luke 23:43.
Jesus said to the thief on the cross, "Truly, truly, I say unto you, today you will be with Me in paradise."
A Thief in Paradise was created on 1925-06-18.
When Jesus wwas on the cross one thief mocked Jesus, but the other repented and Jesus said that he would be in paradise today . three days after he rose to Heaven.
The 'thief' wasn't 'standing next to Jesus', he was hanging on a torture device next to him. Actually, the Bible says that there were two robbers being executed on both sides of Jesus, for crimes they had committed(Matthew 27:38) (Luke 23:32-43), as was prophesied (Isaiah 53:12)
Luke 23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me 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.
