Jesus taught on the sermon on the mount that if any man ask you for anything, do not refuse to give to the man and do not ask for it back. Do you practice this? If so, give me your car.:)

Correct, so the thief on the cross did not go to heaven until the third day, but was in paradise with the Lord in the heart of the earth.

And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise. (Luk 23:43 KJV)

Jesus was in the tomb which he called paradise and Abraham was also. The New Bible Commentary says, "Paradise is the resting place of the redeemed before the final judgement and is open to those who trust in Jesus."

Jesus ascended into heaven, but the repentant thief, along with Abraham and ourselves will have to wait until the resurrection, but the believers place in heavenly glory is assured.

Abraham had faith, so did Moses and the patriarchs, and like all believers, ancient and modern, we will be in paradise (the grave) awaiting the return of our Lord and Saviour.

(Lights out.)

if He wasn't where He told us He would be in order to 'Intercede' for us when we fail Him,
and submit ourselves in 'true repentance' when we err, then you might as well 'hang it up',
for when one 'denies' the 'gift' of 'repentance', then they are in the category of the 'lost' and
un-forgiven' - it's all about submission and honoring our Saviour for His Holy sacrifice...

Yes and No. Physically Jesus is NOT at the right hand of G-d. In Judaism the right side in general = mercy (this is deeper understanding of the Torah). What does this mean? Yeshua being at the right side of G-d pleads for mercy for both Jews and Gentiles and is our "lawyer" to fight off the wrath of G-d and the prosecutor that sits on the left side (judgment and the Adversary). For G-d does not have a "right hand" and Jesus isn't "sitting" there looking pretty. LOL

Ok sure. Since you have the Holy Spirit and its leading you to understand the deep wisdom and knowledge of G-d (for it should as Paul states many times), please advise where I am wrong with scripture and what it does mean? Thanks

for us it is definitely a very special and unique 'gift' less we remain and suffer with
the enemies of God...

I think I understand what you mean by repentance for man Is a gift.

Everything that GOD made Is good and In this way even the law Is good for man even though he could not fulfill GOD’s law perfectly because It shows him that he can’t be righteous In his own strength.

Paul DID say that he wouldn’t have known what sin was If It were not for the law

Notice the significant use of the word Lord. No longer man. I like to think of Jesus as the Word returned to prepare a place for us. (Joh 14:3)
