The Good Theif on the Cross never had the chance to “ Do” Anything...Duh. How could he; he was fastened to a cross.
Did God forgive the Bad Thief?

Which would apply to priests who Catholics claim can forgive sin.
And since God has already assured us that if we confess HE WILL forgive us, what’s a priest think he’s doing trying to override God’s promises?

Of course we can learn from the OT.
IMO, it’s important that people have a better knowledge of it than most do.

Did God forgive the Bad Thief?Well, what does Scripture record as being the requirement(s) for being forgiven?

Luke 23:39-43
39And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. 40But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? 41And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. 42And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.

Setting oneself up as God never ends well.

To: iluvschnitzle; Fiji Hill
Yet I hear that forgiveness is not for the offender but for the victim. What is forgiveness? Best I can tell its letting go of the desire for vengeance? I think it is more than letting go of the desire for vengeance. It is letting go of my rights for vengeance. God said, "vengeance is mine, I will repay". I relinquish that to Him and, in that surrender, I am freed from "getting even" or keeping score.
