1.10- What do you have to do in order to enjoy the grace to go to paradise with Jesus.
1.10-
39 One of the criminals who were hanged there
was [l]hurling abuse at Him, saying, “Are You not
the [m]Christ? Save Yourself and us!”
40 But the other
answered, and rebuking him said, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under
the same sentence of condemnation? 41 And we indeed are suffering justly, for we
are receiving [n]what we deserve for our deeds; but this man
has done nothing wrong.” 42 And
he was saying, “Jesus, remember me when You come [o]in Your kingdom!” 43 And He said to him, “Truly I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise.”
When the thief on the cross was next to Jesus as they were
both dying Jesus could have said to him,
You would only be converting now out of fear. You can’t do that.
You must have read your Bible through.
You must have gone to church regularly.
You must make amends to those you wronged.
He said none of those things.
The thief said, “Remember be when you come.”
Jesus said, “Today you will be with me in paradise.”
Amazing Grace How Sweet the Sound that Saved a Wretch Like
