One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!”
Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.
Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
Thank God for His mercy - It is important to share your faith with family members and others. Even if it appears they are not listening, tuning you out, keep sharing about the Lord. Two criminals were crucified with Jesus on that day who heard the message of the gospel preached somewhere in their travels to the extent they recognized Jesus on the cross. One thief acknowledged Jesus as God and the other thief acknowledged Him to, but asked Jesus to prove that He is God. How sad. Just think about this, they both could have entered in to the Kingdom with Jesus. Which one are you?
Luke 23:39-43, NIV
