To: Mr. Lucky
What did the thief on the cross “do” to merit salvation?

Not one blessed thing. He didn't accept Jesus as his personal Savior. He didn't pray. He didn't repent. Perhaps he wasn't 'saved'.

Wow!

So Christ lied?

"TODAY YOU WILL BE WITH ME IN PARADISE"

(Luke 23:43)

I'll tell you this Mr. Lucky.

The god you believe in is not the same one I believe in.

Really?

Luke 23:42 (King James Version)

42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom

Scripture records that the thief believed that Christ was Lord and that He had the power to save him from death.

Or did you think he meant some other kind of Lord and some other kingdom..?
